Never be satisfied with your work

April 04, 2020 in journal

Are you permanently dissatisfied with your work? You are not alone.

Every time I look at my images as a whole, I feel like there’s something missing. I'm in a journey to an unknown place I haven’t reached yet, and probably never will.

I believe that dissatisfaction with one's own work is unavoidable, but also benefitial in the long term: don’t minimize the doubts, feel them, use the insecurity as a catalyst to push you out there, to experiment, to stay a beginner, and become an even better photographer.
