What are the dragons standing in your way?
What obstacles are keeping you from taking that leap for yourself?
Maybe itās a friend doubting your potential.
A partner who thinks itās too far-fetched.
Or a teacher who said you didnāt have the talent.
But Iām here to tell you, my friend, the possibilities are endless if you believe in yourself.
Believe that you can put in the work.
That the process will work if you work the process.
And have the patience to see your success through...no matter what!
I believe in you!

ā²ļøā³Procrastination is something we all know too well.
Weāve all been there.
But who does procrastination really hurt?
This week, I had a moment that shook me. It was a reminder of how delaying whatās important can sneak up on you.
While it wasnāt a life-threatening event, it still made me realize how easy it is to put off what matters.
And for many of us, that āwhat mattersā is our drawing journey.
For the longest time, improving my drawing skills was the thing I kept pushing aside.
I told myself Iād start practicing tomorrow, next week, or when I had more time.
But the truth is, we all have something weāre procrastinating on...whether itās finally learning anatomy, finishing that piece you started, or practicing a skill youāve been avoiding.
The point is, we all have to face it at some point. Whether we tackle it now or later, the toll must be paid. So why not do it today?

You spot a piece of art that speaks to you.
Inspired, you decide to recreate it.
With pencil in hand, you start drawing.
But when you look at your work, a wave of defeat hits you.
āWhy is this so difficult?ā you wonder.
Iāve been there.
Iāve felt that frustration.
The journey of learning to draw is a long one, but trust me...youāre not alone on this path.
Iāve stood where you are, and Iām still on this journey too.
My advice? Just take it one step at a time.
One day, youāll look back and see how far youāve come.
Cheers, my friends.

The advice I wish I had received when I first started drawing is to not wait around for inspiration.
Inspiration is like the windāit comes and goes.
If we want to improve, we have to show up and get to work.
If you're waiting for perfect conditionsāsunny weather, a nice breeze, a happy day, a stress-free mindāthen, sadly, you won't get much work done, nor will you improve.
But if you simply get to work, put pencil to paper, then magic happens.
I have found that my best work, the moments when I've improved the most, have often been when I least felt like drawing or being creative.
It's within those moments, when I'm not looking to create a masterpiece, that I often find I do my best work.

What if I told you that sports can teach you how to draw?
Imagine watching Kyrie Irving dribble a basketball...we see creativity in action.
Or consider Lionel Messi weaving through defenders...we witness pure artistry.
When I first started drawing, I believed that the key to improvement was simply to draw more.
However, what truly transformed my art almost overnight was understanding that to be more creative and improve, I needed to master the fundamentals first.
Great artists and great athletes share a common trait: they hone the basics until dribbling or drawing becomes second nature.Ā
Master the fundamentals, and a world of possibilities will open up to you.

What I wish someone told me YEARS AGO!!
Imagine weāre talking about your journey as an artist three years from now.
As you look back on these past three years, what personal and professional milestones would make you feel truly proud of your progress?
Dream big!
Iām living proof that anything is possible if you just dare to dream!!

The start is what stops most people!
My friend, do the thing you want to do!
You know, that thing you think about all the time.
That thing that you believe you should be doing,
If only you had the time.
Or the money...
Or the experience....
Or the confidence.....
No more waiting. Map it out, and then do it!
Whatever it is. Just...GO!!!
Because who knows what it may become!
Thank you guys for 60k!
Look how far we've come!
Cheers,
Charlie
