Hey guys, I want to talk about something that's been bothering me regarding me as an animator.
I keep having these insecurities that I'm never going to get better, and I'm won't if I don't keep practicing.
Problem is, I'm almost never in the mood to animate, worse is that I feel scared to animate. I'm scared of messing up my animations, thinking that they need to be perfect, even though it may be just for practice. I'm always teetering between wanting to take my time, but I end up rushing, because of wanting to get it out there. I WANT to take my time, but it's always my own impatience that screws me over. I compare myself to others a lot, it feels like I'll never be as good as the people that I look up to, or that I'll never have as many fans, or animations under my belt.
At the end of the day, I still love doing, and am passionate about animation. But all of these insecurities are what hold me down, and what keep me from fully enjoying what I love

Perhaps it'll come to pass, and you'll feel the desire to animate again. That usually happens with me at least.
