Even if it’s junk, check for the value
Even if it seems like junk,
Finish what has been started.
I’m speaking of art here.
The creative journey is a conversation on the road between heart and mind.
When working on a drawing, a rough draft for a story, outline, storyboard or a creative concept,
I encourage you to bring the initial attempts to conclusion.
Finish it.
Even the worst one,
even the ugliest,
even the awkward,
or the seemingly meaningless one.
They have information.
Those works are the messengers.
One night,
during a restorative and satisfying sleep,
a little but mighty seal flippered it’s way into my dream.
Because of it’s strength and helpfulness, I worked on quick five minute sketches to capture it. That is what is shown in the sketch above.
The rough sketches were created quickly.
And because they were done with less concern about how they looked,
more emphasis was placed on what this little creature of the sea means as a personal symbol.
How does my hand and memory bring this insight into existence?
Well, let me tell you, when I saw what they looked like half completed, I stopped working on them.
I went online to see exactly what seals look like.
The flippers were all wrong plus, these were secret drawings not meant for anyone to see.
As a result of my dismissive thinking, they were placed in the “to be discarded” pile.
Instead of abandoning my work, several days later, in the very early morning, I picked up the sketch and finished it.
When I stepped back to look at it,
lo and behold, I saw a Holy Woman standing behind the seal.
Personal symbols get to the message very quickly. In my sessions, Image Hypnotherapy bypasses restrictive thinking. Instead, it brings readily available information through positive inner allies that you may not be aware of.
They do exist.
They are your messengers of truth.
It’s easy and illuminating to access them. And as a result, the story of your heroine’s journey takes you into deeper meaning and new choices.
