3 Barriers to overcome for Creating Creative Career

There are certain career options that are considered Creative Careers. For Example, Acting, Music, Advertising and Marketing, Architecture, Product Design etc. If you have chosen one of these fields as your career, and you have started building your career then this article is just for you.

In Episode 4 of Season 5, I had a wonderful conversation with Creative Career Coach Ashlee Braxton, who shared the light that in every career field there are barriers that you have to overcome, especially what happens in the Creative Career.

So here are 3 barriers that everyone should overcome:

1. Self Doubt:
   
   It is fine to have self-doubt, and it is quite normal, but don't let it go to your head. We have constant feelings in our minds asking questions to ourselves that "Am I good enough?", or "Will I be able to get success in this field?" etc. But don't worry trust your strengths and you will be successful. Just remember, you are going to step into the best career which you have chosen for yourself. Some people get there early, some people take time, but you are going to get it.
2. What will people say?
   
   One of the most common barriers which almost everyone has in their minds is "What will people say?". But remember, people who want the best of you, people who care about you and your happiness, are always going to support you, and also they will help you to grow. People who are not supportive might not be happy with themselves. As Ashlee Braxton said on the Podcast, "if someone comes to me and says something wrong, I will just reply You are unhappy and it shows, I am going to be happy baby!".
3. Time & Financial Crises:
   
   This is one thing that will happen when you are navigating through your career. Because you have to do Internships and also you might be short of money, but to get to the happy days you have to work hard, right?
   However, Ashlee gave a wonderful solution to this and i.e., having a positive mindset. Find positive things in all the situations, find happiness in small achievements and you will always be happy and enthusiastic.

To conclude, there are barriers in whichever field you want to be successful in, but that does not mean that you are not going to get there. I believe we all are amazing and powerful beings who are going to get to the destination and we all have to remember that we have to enjoy the journey with a Positive Mindset.
