1. Irrational Beliefs about what's possible.
I’ve been reading the works of Albert Ellis, a psychologist and the founder of REBT, a behavioural therapy which forms much of the basis of Modern Psychotherapy. 😮
He often talks about how the “Beliefs” we hold (that we haven’t questioned yet)dictates much of our actions/responses in life.
One of the common beliefs that people hold is that “they can’t draw”
Or
“They have to be born with talent to draw” 🤷♂️
A belief is proven wrong when you see a piece of evidence against it.
Instead of telling you that it’s “not true”…
Let me show you evidence 👇
All, Students of Drawing Camp, started a year or two ago…now they are here.
This is all they did;
1. Showed up for practice day in and day out.
2. They did that for a Year or two.
3. They focused more on Process than Result.
It’s possible.
Hence proved. 😶
2. Breaking the Myth
Here’s a 10ish min video that I’ve made on why this ‘belief’ is fundamentally false..
3. Favourite Quote of the week
“The best time to plant a tree was 10 years ago. The second best time is now”
– anonymous
And oh, here’s something that will help you draw…
That’s it for this week folks!
See you in the next one 🙂
Best,
Kesh.
