New Mindset, Who 'Dis? — Week 8 of 52 Week Photo Project

It’s the monkey for me 🐵

Lmao, okay but seriously, it’s always the first/test photo that I love the most. So y’all are seeing my cute monkey phone holder, my pet rock Doug and the beats pill because I loved this photo most and it was snapped before I cleared them off my desk 🤷🏻‍♀️ 😂

I was feeling myself this weekend as a total newb playing with makeup! I took a basics makeup class AND a watercolor class for the first time this weekend! Oh, and y’all remember the Instagram Reel earlier this week right?? Also new to me 🙋🏻‍♀️.

Normally playing in all this new-ness would spike my anxiety and perfectionism and squash all sense of creativity.

“I suck at this, just forget it” — anyone say this before... after trying something new... FOR THE FREAKIN’ FIRST TIME!? 🤦🏻‍♀️

GUILTY 🙋🏻‍♀️

Expecting myself to be perfect or hell even great at something after trying it only a few times then being seriously disappointed when I’m not, so I give it up altogether. (I see you under there crochet needles... 👀).

I let go of that this week, tried not to think about it TOO much so I don’t get sucked right back into it. And you know what happened?

I had FUN! And I felt a bit refreshed doing something not photo-related... that then made me excited to even grab AJ to help make these photos!

Is anyone feeling this surge of energy to try new things?? Is it that moon stuff? I don’t follow it 😩

Anywho, per usual I love color AND black & white of this photo, so let me know which is YOUR favorite! Also if you where lipstick, what’s your go to color!?I LOVE Red!

Also here’s some classic foolery of me excited about playing with brushes 😂 SCARY 😂
