Inch By Inch

 When you're trying to improve as an artist, you don't have to do something huge. You can make small efforts that will take you closer to your goal. It may seem minor and insignificant but the accumulation of the little actions will have an appreciable impact on your artistic growth. You can just decide to write/draw/dance/do whatever it is that you do for 15 minutes every morning. At first it might look like an exercise in futility but as the days and months go by the time will add up and there will be a compounded effect on your skills, knowledge and abilities.

In the words of Brian Tracy:

"By the yard it's hard, but inch by inch anything is a cinch".

Take a step. Even if you move by an inch, you're now an inch closer to your goal.
