As you please

At a certain stage of development, children are highly confident. They’re not self-conscious, they’re not nervous, they’re not worried about judgement. They just do as they please.

And this applies to creative projects, too. There’s no question of canon. There’s no concern over the market, taste, or critique.

There’s only the maker and what the maker seeks to create.

As adults, when we can selectively harness this posture, we restore the infinite nature of the creative process.

Find ways to recall your childhood confidence: create with that joyful freedom.
