Courage is the first step to learning something new

Courage for me is the jumping off point for most things. Courage enables you to try something new, it pushes you out of your comfort zone and in some cases, allows us to make great changes in our lives.

 
 

Being creative doesn’t mean you have to be artistic, or skilled or a master of your craft. Being creative is simply having the courage to take the first step. That’s all. When you do, beautiful things can come of it.

Take a look at this video I recorded of my design process where in my sketchbook, I use a dip pen and ink to letter the saying, sketch a very basic stem and digitize them using Adobe Illustrator to create this image.

 
 

Pick up a pen and write the word courage with me and see how it feels!! Don’t forget to subscribe below to get access to my FREE 5 day dip pen and ink challenge!
