Send us a text438 - The One Thing All Artists Struggle 06/06/2023In my many, many years as an artist and a mentor of artists, I've seen triumphs and challenges of every description. And while every artist's story is different, there is one thing I have seen that can get in the way of any artist's success.I'll give you a hint: comparison. Artists have a tendency to compare themselves to other artists and peers in a variety of different ways. And when you start to make those comparisons, you're treading a path that has led many an artist to give up. In this episode of 5-Minute Mentoring, I go over why I think comparison is such a problem for artists, and how they can avoid falling into that trap. It's an important lesson, and you should really take it to heart. ====================When you’re ready to stop striving and start thriving, here are 4 other ways I can help: 1️⃣ Get my FREE Guide, “5 Biggest Misconceptions About Prophetic Art”Wondering how to create your art with God or what prophetic art is all about?
