Trusting the Process

One of the hardest things to do while creating is trusting the process. Especially in those moments where the work feels as though it has hit a brick wall. Last week I felt like I was at the wall. My work wasn't doing what I wanted it to do and there seemed to be a real possibility of the works being unrecoverable. But, this week, they started unfolding into works of interest.
