slippery slope

I am in a bit of trouble. I have been falling into the trap of comparing my creative work to the creative work of others, more experienced and more skilled. Of course, I come up lacking.

This will not help me get better.
That is all.

  • I can relate, but you just have to take this approach -

    If there is a beautiful song in the world is that a reason we should not sing?

    Other's gifts should be an inspiration to act, not a reason for inaction.

    Easier said than done, of course -
