In this video I look into the phenomenon of so called “selfsabotage” in the creative process. Why do we turn against our own creative work? What are reasons behind “sabotaging” our own work and how it is it linked to personal identification with our art and the fear of judgment?
Does “selfsabotage” even exist or is it maybe even a misconception?
Can we simply reduce this phenomenon to ego problems, selfworth issues and/or perfectionism? Is it that simple?
I’m not trying to answer these questions. My intention is to move them into an inspiring and thoughtprovoking direction because I think we should all empower ourselves with individual knowledge and individual ways of understanding, practicing inner source research and learning from each other.
In the second part of the video, I discuss approaches that personally help me overcome my own 'sabotaging' behavior.
What’s your point of view? ❤
