Overcoming I am not good enough feeling as a Writer | Ep 42
Manage episode 417355147 series 2879875
In this episode, I explore the common feeling of self-doubt that plagues many writers - the nagging voice that tells us "I'm not good enough" to be a writer or succeed at writing. I share several powerful quotes from famous authors that have inspired me when I've struggled with those kinds of thoughts. Writers like Ray Bradbury, Natalie Goldberg, J.K. Rowling and others provide wisdom and reassurance that even brilliant writers experience terrible first drafts and have to work through periods of feeling inadequate. Their advice reminds me that the key is to keep writing, keep exploring the craft, and have faith in yourself even at the daunting "notebook stage." With their insights, I talk myself through overcoming the "I'm not good enough" mentality and share perspectives that can help any writer push past that resistance.
