iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

what do you do when your usual typing session becomes fingers drumming on wood? when you're starting from scratch, there's no point of reference. no standard to fall short of. so when life stops you, and you return to find your mother tongue sounds foreign... would you stay?

ticking off boxes can feel thrilling. it signals we're moving forward, that what we're doing matters. but what if you keep working and find that you aren't closer to where you want to be? we lose track of what actually sticks. better to move like a turtle who remembers than a sprinter who forgets.

been reading small gods n i really love how it questions religious institutions. not the faith itself, but moreso how its handled & taught by its leaders. haven’t seen smth like this since moral orel (without the grim pivot 2/3 in, at least where i’m at) do any of you know of those/similar media?

how many versions of yourself have you torn apart before you could see them grow? #art #illustration #ocart

An illustration in black and orange colors, the first half of the image showing someone ripping a small sprout out of the ground. The second half shows them throwing the uprooted sprout into a very thick of pile of many others, and this is metaphor for what happens when you give up on something too soon. - How many sprouts have you uprooted before they could properly grow?

eek.. i have been sick nearly the entire january with a recently confirmed same-family-as-covid virus.. TT_TT i think it lands that the last drawings i made were about impatience. this has been pretty much been a meta-to-life practice in trusting the process

[ 🧵 ] when did waiting become suffocating? you show up, you put in the hours. still, frustration bites. hard. patience feels like being smothered. how do you endure the gap between who you are and who you want to be? #selfsabotage #overcomingperfectionism #emotionalhonesty #innerworkjourney

if you’ve been struggling to stay on track: anything meaningful is hard. it’s meant to be hard. as steven pressfield once said… fear is an indicator. it may feel uncomfortable, but you’re doing what needs to be done. keep going. ❤️‍🔥

hey, friends. to all 11 of you, thank you for seeing, thank you for staying. i'm making something about the frustrations that come w just 'trusting the process'. we know we need patience to build anything meaningful, but it can be frustrating all the same. do any of you struggle with this?

thinking about how you can be aware that too much polish can take away from the soul of making things, but feeling a pull to try and make it perfect anyway 😮‍💨 still, done is better than none. anyone else been struggling to just put imperfect work out there? i'd really want to know your experience 🫂

been trying to be more unpolished these days. it's so different in concept vs. practice... in a world that always shows polished work, it's easy to form this subconscious belief that we need that quality at the get-go, too our nervous systems need resets, anything worth doing is worth doing poorly

as a perfectionist, our deep strive for excellence is public enemy number 1. anything less than that feels like a disservice to something, but that something is just the idea of who we think we should be. it's unfair to how much work is put into being who you are today. let's give ourselves credit
