Just start making and forget about results

Photography is an amazing art form. It allows us to capture moments, explore the world around us, and share our perspective with the world. It’s a great way to express ourselves and to capture memories that we can look back on and cherish. But, it can also be easy to get caught up in the results, and to focus on pleasing our egos. We all want to take the perfect shot, and when we don’t, it can be discouraging.

The key is to remember that photography is about much more than just the results. It’s about the process, the journey, and the experience. So, forget about the results, and just start doing. Do what calls to you. If an idea or inspiration comes to mind, express yourself and create. Don’t worry if the moment passes and the inspiration or idea fades. It’s ok to let it go and move onto the next thing. Keep going.

When you approach photography with this mindset, it can be incredibly freeing. You don’t have to worry about getting the perfect shot or pleasing your ego. You can just focus on the process and the journey. You can explore and experiment. You can take risks and push yourself. You can make mistakes and learn from them.

The more you do this, the more you’ll grow as a photographer. You’ll develop your own style and find your own voice. You’ll become more confident and comfortable in your own skin. You’ll start to see the world in a different way. You’ll realize that photography isn’t just about the results, but about the journey and the process.

You’ll also start to appreciate the beauty in the imperfections and the imperfect moments. Instead of striving for perfection, you’ll learn to appreciate the unique beauty of each moment. You’ll learn to love the imperfections and to see them as part of the creative process.

You’ll also start to understand the importance of taking risks. Taking risks is an essential part of the creative process. It’s how we push ourselves, learn, and grow. It’s how we find our own unique style and perspective. So, don’t be afraid to take risks and to push yourself.

Finally, you’ll learn to appreciate the journey. Photography is a journey of exploration and discovery. It’s a journey of learning, growing, and pushing yourself. It’s a journey of expressing yourself and exploring the world around you. So embrace the journey, and don’t get discouraged if you don’t get the results you want. Just keep going and you’ll find your own unique style and perspective.

So, forget about the results, and just focus on the journey. Explore, experiment, take risks, and make mistakes. Keep going and you’ll find your own voice and become a better photographer. You’ll learn to appreciate the beauty in the imperfections and the imperfect moments. You’ll learn to love the creative process and to appreciate the journey.
