The power of being underestimated is available to everyone.

It is also abundant and free.

But it’s power isn’t available until the victim-mentality is shed forever.

You are the CEO of You, Inc.

Art is doing what others say is crazy, “because it will never work”

Small 18-seater aircraft
Art is like flying, you see things so much differently than typical

 

Art is slaying those dragons of doubt and fear.

Art is living like you mean it.

Art is doing what others say is crazy, “because it will never work”.

Art is doing it in spite of the doubters and haters.

Art is being authentic.

Art, your art, is begging for your attention.

Art is as quiet as being an amazing parent.

Art is as bold as changing the way the world thinks, or maybe just changing the way your boss thinks.

Art knows no boundaries.

Art may also never know you.

Art, your art, loves you and wants you to come home.

And excuses, regrets, hope, opportunity, permission

Excuses lead to regret.

Regret leads to hope.

Hope leads to opportunity.

And opportunity begs for permission.

Second chances, no?
