This is a follow-up chat from the last video and chat about serving Your Higher Self, where I talked about how denying yourself the things you need and want to make your life better is failing to serve and support your Higher Self [the ideal YOU, you at your best, in your fullest power].
A lot of small business culture right now, especially but not limited to online businesses and gig economy, is built on the idea that you have to work endlessly – grind – in order to succeed. This is absolutely not true, and it is a really toxic mindset to fall into!
Why am I bringing this up on a website about fiber artistry? Because as a small businessperson and an artist, this mindset is pervasive and I’ve fallen for it before; what’s worse, this mindset is the antithesis of actual creative work, because you NEED rest in order to be your best self, your higher self.
