JUST DO IT!” as Nike’s slogan states. Stop waiting for the ideal moment to do THAT thing! Use what is available to you to get the job done. A lot of time, creativity is birthed when we are faced with the challenge to complete a task without all the materials. I know that’s especially true in my life that I’d put off doing things just because I don’t feel like I have what it takes or due to a lack of resources. At times, I lack confidence even though I’m brimming with passion.
What do you do when you’re lacking resources?
I tailor my expectations and align them with the resources I do have. Does this mean I am settling and not dreaming big? Absolutely, not! While some of us can be dreamers, we also need to be realistic. A healthy balance of realism and idealism is the right combination to possess. Remember, it is better to move at a snail’s pace than to not move at all. Slow progress is still progress.
Example: In the pictures below, I had to find a way to take them without a tripod. My camera was propped up on a barstool in various angles as I tried earnestly to get the right shot. Again, use what is available to you. This post may talk about something as trivial as a lack of a tripod when your situation is much direr, but the same principle applies. Whatever it is you are needing to do, don’t let a lack of resources stop you from your goal.
