  • I recently celebrated my 33rd birthday. With each passing year, I can't help but feel myself becoming less and less creative. But this year, that changes. Starting with this video, I'm challenging myself to let go of perfection, make more, and hopefully learn a thing or two along the way. Subscribe to follow along for the journey. :)

    i teared up watching this. whenever i get creative impulses i often end up not following through because i think about the artists that are younger and far more successful than me, and how it’s too late for me to get on their level. but screw that! the absence of fame and recognition doesn’t mean your work is inferior. thank you for inspiring me to not listen to that thing in my head telling me i’m not good enough and to just create more, without judgement. ❤

      This comment made me tear up! The doubts will always be there, but keep pushing through and make things and share them anyway! Even if it resonates with one person, your message matters :)

    Happy Birthday! Thank you for this video, I wouldn’t be surprised if it blew up on here, the message you’re sending through is very wholesome and important ☺️

      Wow, thanks for the kind words. As long as it’s already had an impact on a few ppl, that’s plenty for me. Thanks for watching :)

      Same even tho I thought they’d get one of each bc avoidance of decisions

    Hell yes! Another hiker who’s trying to be more creative. I love that the algorithm brought me here. Looking forward to seeing how you use your supplies on hikes too!

    Hi Jess I’m soon to be 43 and I feel the same way, and I’ve been feeling like this for a while now. Took a few days off for a family vacation to the Smoky Mountains and i loved it, sad that is soon coming to an end, nature is my happy place and I found a new love for hiking 😊 I hope to see more of your content 🙏🏼

    This must have been out of fate or something but i was just talking to my friend about this feeling. I'm also 33 and feel less creative lately. Thank you for the inspiration truly :) and of course happy birthday!

    I lost creativity and motivation In my job, because I am part time, with 2 kids.
    I am stuck with my husband 30% of the year at home due to sicknesses all the time.
    Whenever I come back to the office, I need to keep up with what happened. In IT things can change within a week, especially in Agile methodology projects.
    I told myself, whenever I feel ready and not exhausted anymore, I will make my comeback as soon as possible. I am stagnating at 33 years, turning 34 this week. It's not the end of the world. My current focus is 75% family, and this will improve as soon as the toddler grows out from permanent request age and bringing infections at home

    I constantly feel like I’m not creative anymore and that I wish I made more time to create. Thanks for the inspiration Nugget!!

    This just came up on my recommended feed and I have to say that this just re-ignited something within me. I am nineteen years old and for the past two years I have felt so dull when it comes to doing anything creative. When it came to my own creative impulses, I found myself obsessing over perfectionism and would constantly compare myself to those who were either older, younger, or even the same age as me and it would prevent me from continuing on those impulses. Comparison kills creativity and we shouldn't have to strive to be better than others, or strive for the fame and success when it comes to that creativity, just create!
    Thank you so, so much for this and Happy Birthday

    Yes! And, it's just a number. I realized that as the wax melted. You did that. I'm now 57, still trying to perfect my first screenplay after 3 ish years. Not feeling so creative in this caregiving/chronic symptom/unemployed season I'm going through... Thank you, I needed this.

    Jesus started His ministry at 33:-)
    Created His first miracle at a wedding in Cana, where He turned water into wine.
    The older I get the more creative, I feel… However, my health conditions won’t let me create at the rate and speed and scale that I now have the ideas for. 😢 That doesn’t stop me though. I just try to trust that I am in His hands. Then I just can’t wait to try everything that is in my head.
    I love your message that it doesn’t have to make you famous, and that no one can create what is in your head except you. Thank you! God bless!

    I LOVED THIS!!! Can I ask how the PCT was? That’s how I came across your channel 😁 I honestly would love to do that but wouldn’t last an hour 😂 happy birthday 🎊

    • @itsjessferri
      @itsjessferri  Před 5 měsíci

      Wow, thanks so much! The PCT was honestly amazing in so many ways. Best thing I ever did for myself. Highly reco going after it if it’s something you want to do.
      And thanks for the kind words about this video. Know is not the hiking content that ppl have followed me for, but good to see people are open to some of the other video ideas I have planned.
      And maybe I’ll make a longer video about the PCT someday, probably not for a while though :)

    Great video. Just curious how you did on the PCT? Did you complete it? Or partially? I remember when you started out but I went away from CZcams for a while.
