I doodle a lot. Lately I’ve started a gratitude journal that I use different color markers and stuff so it’s kind of illustrated. I love to take pictures but I don’t do it enough…I get to use some creativity in my job making different low tech supports for students with special needs.
I feel like I have a lot more internal desire to be creative than I actually let out, like cooking or baking or painting. Maybe it’s the feeling I think it’ll bring me, but then when it comes to doing those things I don’t.
The initial thought I get is “I’m lazy” so I think that’s a big story…Also I think I need to give myself permission to try things and be ok with liking some things and not liking others. It sounds dumb when I write it down, but really I think I get stuck there.

Sounds like a lot of creativity is on the surface for you so what’s the story that comes up when it comes to doing those things?
