This is my second year taking Lifebook. This is from the first week's lesson. My word for the year is "Patience". Too often, I discourage myself and think that my art will never be good enough. That I should stop making art, right here, right now. I compare myself to all the exceptional teachers and students and tell myself that I will never be like them. So my word for this year is to be patient with myself, be conscious not to put myself down and just enjoy the process.
