And now, a scary task: get ready to share one of your worst creations online. Yes! Do it. It can be a photo, a drawing, a piece of writing, an embroidered hanky, a collage, a dish… Pick anything you made that you thought was pretty bad.

You will need these materials: your bad piece of work (a photograph, a painting, a lousy logo design, a sad looking dish, awful music, boring storytelling…), and a smartphone to take a photo of it.

Add the badge
Under Projects & Resources you will find a pdf file called 'Badges' that contains several badges that you can use. You can also make your own. Fill one in, print it or add it to your work digitally.

Upload this to your project, share some of your Inner Critic's comments and also please share your work on your social media with the hashtags #theinnercriticseries and #lucylambriex and you can add #shareyourworst as well.

Why do your project?
If you want to benefit from this class, your project is vital. And of course do the inner work, which is what this is all about.

“But this is super scary!”
Indeed it is.

Sharing your work will help you get the most out of it
By sharing this very bad piece you did, the class really starts to have an effect. Your inner critic will get very active from the moment you consider doing this. It will smack you, scream at you, whisper nasty words. And you will let it go ahead and stick out your inner tongue.

You will OBSERVE without reacting. Notice their every move. (And remember to write it all down in a journal or notebook.)

By sharing, you will weaken the power of your Inner Critic. By not reacting to its negative talk, you tell it to *#&^ off because you will do whatever you want!

In the next class I will dive deeper into the dynamic and you will actually learn to benefit from the Inner Critic.

Finally, by sharing, you will inspire other students to follow suit and gain the courage to do the same.

Share your best
To make this even more challenging for your Inner Critic, you can also add your best piece including the badge 'My Best...' . Particularly in some of the northern European countries and Australia, where people are not supposed to stick their heads out, the Inner Critic will become very active. Let me know how this went, okay?

Project cover Image
Make sure to add your image with the badge as a project cover image! This will make your project pop up higher among the other projects on Skillshare, so more people can enjoy, be inspired by and learn from your work and your journey.

Join me in class and let’s teach that inner critic (and yourself) a lesson on your journey to more creative confidence.
