In a Funk

I am in a funk.  Lately letting my insecurities get the best of me.  Obsessing about where I’d like to be, where I know I can be and getting bummed that I don’t feel like I am there yet.  It is so hard not compare myself to others, not to look at other photographers work and think, “Man, I wish I were that good, or had a style like that…..

I know this is self destructive behavior and that is part of the reason why I feel so insecure about my own work.  The only person I should be competing with is me.  I saw this quote on girl hearts camera and thought I’d share.  I am sure I am not the only one who gets in these funks of self doubt and insecurity.  So it is important to remember to avoid getting caught up in comparisons and what other people are doing or how “good” other people are.  I am good enough.  and when I compare myself to no one but me, I can only get better.
