我們的原始腦為了求生存而演變:對未知充滿恐懼,對變化充滿抗拒。
這個充滿恐懼的蜥蜴腦需要不斷的保證與提振信心甚至在它夠安靜之前、在它能讓我們去創造藝術來改變其他人之前,需要有人推一把,好讓我們去做些困難卻有價值的事。
然而多數的導師、教練與老師會告訴你,在不比較潛力的情況下,僅很少的學生可以達成。很少的人突破並改變事情,我們對此慶祝。但是我們其他的每一個人呢?
藝術家是與眾不同的。他們勇於嘗試。
不必推他們一把。他們放手一搏。
The fearful lizard brain demands reassurance and coaching and even a push before it is quiet enough to permit us to do the difficult work our economy demands, before it will allow us to create art that changes others.
And yet most mentors and coaches and teachers will tell you that few of their students ever do, not in comparison with their potential. A few break through and change everything, and we celebrate them, but what about everyone else?
The artists are different. They took a leap.
They weren't pushed. They jumped.
