RECOVERING A SENSE OF POWER.

This week may find you dealing with unaccustomed bursts of energy and sharp peaks of anger, joy and grief. You are coming into your power as the illusory hold of your previously accepted limits is shaken. You will be asked to consciously experiment with spiritual openmindedness

DEALING WITH CRITICISM


https://www.writingofriding.com/artists-way/week-3-recovering-a-sense-of-power/

There are certain rules of the road, useful in dealing with any form of criticism.

Receive the criticism all the way through and get it over with.

Jot down notes to yourself on what concepts or phrases bother you.

Jot down notes on what concepts or phrases seem useful.

Do something very nurturing for yourself — read an old good review or recall a compliment.

Remember that even if you have made a truly rotten piece of art, it may be a necessary stepping-stone to your next work.

 Art matures spasmodically and requires ugly-duckling growth stages.

Look at the criticism again. Does it remind you of any criticism from your past — particularly shaming child-hood criticism?

 Acknowledge to yourself that the current criticism is triggering grief over a long-standing wound.

Write a letter to the critic — not to be mailed, most probably. Defend your work and acknowledge what was helpful, if anything, in the criticism proffered.

Get back on the horse. Make an immediate commitment to do something creative.
Do it. Creativity is the only cure for criticism.
