Recently, I've been feeling very inspired by listening to content from creatives outside the arts and crafts industries. A couple of weeks ago I watched the Project Iceman documentary produced by Yes Theory!, and I absolutely loved it, and keep mentioning in all sorts of conversations. It's one of those pieces of content that not only resonated with me, but it truly inspired and motivated me as a creative entrepreneur... which is why I want to share about it with you, in case you need the same kind of boost.
In this episode we're talking about what Anders accomplished in Project Iceman mentally, and specifically what he accomplished despite everyone telling him he would fail.
It's true: entrepreneurship isn't easy. Following your dreams and passions as a creative are not easy. And it isn't any easier when it feels like you don't have a proper support system around you. However, Anders proves to me that you can prove the naysayers wrong even if you don't have people believing in you. You can build your support system slowly, but what's going to be most important is your own belief in yourself and your determination to follow through.
My goal with this episode is to pass along just a smidgen of the inspiration that I felt from this documentary. To remind you to pursue your dreams, even when it's hard, even when folks tell you it's not possible. Your journey is your journey, and your journey alone. It's ok if other folks don't get it. Keep crushing it, and I'm here cheering you on!
