If you find yourself asking yourself (and your friends) “Am I really a writer? Am I really an artist?” chances are you are. The counterfeit innovator is wildly self-confident. The real one is scared to death.
This quote is from a book called The War of Art by Steven Pressfield that my buddy Joel tells me I have to read. It also comes recommended by Mandy with “Love. That. Book.“.
I’m always encouraged when people tell me it’s ok the be scared to death. I’m not sure I ever walk into a shoot thinking “yeah, I got this.” It takes a bit of the weight off my shoulders.
