A poem for when you feel overwhelmed

If the overwhelm fuelled thoughts take over my mind….⁣
⁣
If the inner critic starts reading me a mile-long list of doubts….⁣
⁣
If thoughts of perfection tell me that if I can't do it all I'm better off doing nothing......⁣
⁣
…..I come back to ONE. ⁣

One workshop hosted. One painting. One chapter written. One podcast recorded.

You only need one to remind yourself that you can do it. One shows us that we're capable of creating something.

One sounds simplistic and underwhelming because it's not the finish line, the published book, or reaching #1 in the charts.

But starting with one builds belief in ourselves and our creativity. One gives us permission to let go of the expectations, to do it imperfectly and most of all to begin.
