Celebrating small wins boosts creative confidence from "summary" of Creative Confidence by David Kelley,Tom Kelley
When we embark on a creative project, it's easy to get caught up in the grand vision of the final outcome. We set lofty goals and dream of the big win that will make it all worthwhile. However, in the pursuit of these big wins, we often overlook the importance of celebrating the small victories along the way. Each small win we achieve on our creative journey should be seen as a stepping stone towards our ultimate goal. These small wins may seem insignificant in the grand scheme of things, but they play a crucial role in building our creative confidence. They act as validation that we are on the right track, that our ideas have merit, and that we are capable of overcoming obstacles. By celebrating these small wins, we not only acknowledge our progress but also boost our creative confidence. This confidence is essential for pushing through challenges, taking risks, and exploring new ideas. When we feel confident in our abilities, we are more likely to think outside the box and push the boundaries of our creativity. Moreover, celebrating small wins creates a positive feedback loop that fuels our motivation and drives us to continue moving forward. It reminds us that creativity is not just about the end result but also about the journey – the process of learning, growing, and evolving as a creative individual. So, the next time you achieve a small win in your creative endeavors, take a moment to celebrate it. Share it with others, reflect on how far you've come, and use it as fuel to propel you towards even greater success. Remember, creative confidence is not built overnight – it's a gradual process that starts with acknowledging and celebrating the small victories along the way.
