Therapy for artists
Before the artist can produce anything, she must first establish a life which nourishes, rather than undermines, her impulse to create. She must struggle with issues of money and time, with her own nagging self-doubt and feelings of worthlessness. She must summon the courage to do for herself before doing for others. She must stare down society's persistent--and usually internalized--messages that her story is not worth telling, that she has nothing to say, that she's selfish and immature, that she is devoid of the genius necessary to do anything interesting, that art itself is unimportant, and that no one is going to listen anyway.
“What separates artists from ex-artists is that those who challenge their fears continue; those who don’t, quit.”
