put your inner critic on notice
|
Let’s give the critic in your brain a different job to do. See, the critic thinks it’s keeping you safe–protecting you from embarrassment or even worse… rejection. But, there is important news for you: you don’t actually need that protection. So, let’s give the critic something else to protect.

distractions are a kind of wall that we voluntarily build between us and creative ideas
Heavily inspired by Miranda July's, "A Handy Tip For the Easily Distracted"

“The initial idea behind ‘Keep Your Mind Free’ grew out of an image I created for an action to support the decarceration and furloughing of eligible people in prison to help save lives under the threat of COVID-19. The phrase was a message of encouragement to those locked up having to deal with the virus in a place where they cannot socially distance nor do most of the things the rest of us can do to avoid infection. As the pandemic raged on and the intensity of fear and isolation set in, it made sense to extend this same sentiment out to EVERYONE through song. It’s true that we all need illumination in dark days. In a time that hurts the heart and body, in a time that sequesters us from our loved ones, in a time where safety is not a given, in a locked-down world, to be liberated from restraint we have to keep our minds free.” – Damon Locks
