Hello, My name is Christa Dickson and i am so excited to welcome all of you to our very first MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY! Motivation Monday was created in order to bring inspiration, self love and happiness to all the creatives around the world! This day is going to be used by Christa Dickson Photography to remind all of you that no matter where you are going with your art you are making an extraordinary difference! You are making a life changing, earthquaking, volcano exploding DIFFERENCE. The purpose of Motivation Mondays is to make sure you never forget it!
Today's Motivational Monday is going to be centered mainly around progress! If you are like me, you look at amazing beautiful images every single day and think to yourself, "I wish i could do that!" I wish i had the raw talent and imagination to create something so breathe-taking and cause this kind of inspiration within a person. Well, i'll tell ya what, YOU DO.
This is the event that began my love affair with photography 10 years ago.
The "progress" three years later.
As creative people we are growing more today than we were yesterday and more tomorrow than we will be today because we see so much beauty. Everybody started someplace, my facebook page has 191 likes right this moment and for some people, that'll seem like quite a bit but me that wasn't nearly enough. Then i stopped and actually thought about what that means. That means one thing, that i have inspired 191 people at a given moment! 191 people have looked at my page and said, "Wow, I wish i could do that!"
You will continue to grow and as you do that you will also continue to inspire. So, get inspiration from those people with 2,000 or 3,000 followers or who's pictures are just so breath-taking. Be INSPIRED by those people, who can do things on photoshop that you have yet to even try to conquer. Mostly, be inspired by yourself and look back from time to time, realize that you have grown beyond comparison. You can change this world one single day at a time and 191 inspirational followers today, 191 beautiful amazing people may end up being 191 million inspirational follows tomorrow.
Do not allow yourself to be put off because others are "better than you" today, you are your hardest critic. You are amazing, you are beautiful, you are talented and you are able to accomplish ANYTHING. Love yourself first, and realize you can do whatever you put your mind too and then DO IT. Do not forget how far you have come, and do not forget how much farther you will go.
