Comparison is the thief of joy. Can I just get an Amen on that? I mean seriously, though.  How many times have you compared your chapter 3 to someone else chapter 13? We have got to stop doing this to ourselves! I will admit I am no stranger to comparing myself to others.  I have looked at fellow photographers work and thought, “why can’t my work look like that?” and “I don’t know why I thought I could really hack it in this industry.” Its these kinds of thoughts that do nothing but bring in self doubt and none of us need that.

For Creative Entrepreneurs:

I am so happy to be apart of an awesome movement of creative entrepreneurs The Rising Tide Society.  This group centers on building up other creatives, in your field or not, with the notion that “A rising tide lifts all boats”- JFK.  They focus not on comparison between each other, but rather building each other up.  Community over Competition. and I am so blessed to have found this network of other creatives and the once a month meetings, the second Tuesday of each month, are great.  Follow along on Instagram with #TuesdaysTogether and click the link above and find the meet-up closest to you!
