I have a solid set of skills and somehow always refuse to use them. A thread.
I can draw, which while i do so often, i have yet to start commissions even though im constantly being told i should.
I can act, though im find it impossible to get myself to find and do anything related (aside from helping friends of friends in the industry)

I can edit videos, though i find i do so inconsistently in a way that ends up mildly useless.
I can write, though i dont flex it as much, i do know essential archetypes and themes that make for solid storytelling.

I THINK i can sing but i dont feel ive legitimately proven that to myself entirely and so i wont dig into that one too much...
Point is, these all have one specifc thing in common. I always WANT to use them and yet anytime i begin to do so something in me works as a mental block and destroys whatever motivation i had. I just dont know what it is.
Could it be a lack of confidence? well, as i stated them as skills im this thread, clearly i feel i AM good at them in some way.
Is it that i DONT want to do any of them? I hope not cuz i REALLY want to do acting in film as a career.

If it boils down to straight up laziness, i dont know how to fight that.
I realize this a weird thing to just tweet out to the internet but i am perplexed and didnt feel like leaving it in JUST my own mind. If anyone else gets this feeling id love to hear...i hope i get past it.
