BUILD YOUR CREATIVE CONFIDENCE Fear of judgement Generally as humans, we fear the harsh criticism from our peers and the people around us. We are afraid of being judged by even the closest people to us. If someone negatively comments on a project which you have been working on for a while, you will of course be devastated. All that hard work for it to just be mocked at? This can completely discourage us to continue the project or even to never begin creative projects again. These harsh "creative-crushing" moments can deeply wound someone and prevent them from coming up with innovative and unique ideas. You need to stick with your project no matter what, and you will see that it will end up being amazing. You will even surprise yourself. All you need to do is satisfy your own needs. If you are happy with your creative project, then continue and prosper. Do not let the words of others determine whether you let your creative ideas flowing. Step out of your own comfort zone and show how proud you are of your own creation. The negative individuals around you will not attack you if you show that you are pleased with your creative initiative. Hold your head high and do not let the words of other discourage your own thought process. Stick with what you love doing and you will find that the creativity will come automatically.
