Creative Mindset AJ Merlin

You made it to the last day! Yeahhhh!
Thank you so much for showing up every day.
I hope that you now understand better how you talk to yourself and what inspires you and motivates you!
You know that self-compassion is the way forward so you can really embrace yourself and be the true artist you want to be, with no fears and no obstacles holding you back.
Use it every day.
What’s the difference between day 1 and now? So let’s spend the next 5 minutes and see how you transformed.
And before you go, I’d love to know how you found this journaling challenge by answering this quick survey.

 Join my free 21-day journaling challenge to understand who you are as a creative, what’s holding you back, and how you can reframe that little voice in your head. 
 
 I'll post an episode every day, where you can journal at the same time as me and reframe that inner critic! 
 
 It's not too late to start this challenge: https://www.ajmerlin.com/challenge

For today, I invite you to find a mantra that you can use to support your inner mentor.
What mantra can support you with your creativity?
Brainstorm for 5 minutes, and then pick up what works best for you right now. It can be one sentence, it can be a word.
Not sure how to find the right mantra of affirmation for you? Listen to my podcast episode “How can self-care help your creative career?” for some tips.

Let’s continue to build some mindful tools and let’s talk about support. There is this idea that artists need to be alone and suffer.
It’s completely wrong.
How could a support group empower you?
I have a membership called the FAM. We meet every week to chat about our week, support each other and make sure we keep going no matter what. If you’re interested, you can join for a discounted price by using the coupon JOURNALING (valid for the next 48 hours).
We’re so close to the end of this challenge! Keep doing your amazing work and I’ll see you tomorrow!

I love the prompt today. I mean, I love all of them, but I think this one is really fun.
This will help you when you had a bad day, arguments, or you made a mistake and you feel bad about it.

Reframing starts when we realise how we talk to ourselves, and we realise how harsh we are, and how we would never say that to someone else.
You need to be kind to yourself when you feel vulnerable, when you face an obstacle or when you hear criticism...
So let’s continue today.
How can self-compassion support you?
