We welcome you to the Ogono Outfamily. Thanks for tuning in. Today's topic we're going to be talking about how to take a compliment. Now I know I understand that when we take in compliments when artists take in compliments they tend to reject the other person's you know compliment in a sense that in their minds they're thinking about you know comparing themselves to other artists like they may see their work as of course that they need to improve on or so and that they're not deserving of that compliment and so that may be a good thing just know that improvement is like a never-ending process until death arises. So even if you're a professional you're still improving on your craft and along my earlier journey as an artist when I would receive compliments from other people I wouldn't let the compliment sit in I wouldn't have that positive exchange with the person that's giving the compliment I would just completely outrule them thinking about other people for example like a other artist that I inspired to be like or so. Instead of giving that person that one-on-one attention and validating their compliment and so some artists may think to themselves why is this person complimenting me there are so many other better artists out there but one thing you need to keep in mind is that personally I don't feel there's a such a thing as good and bad art there what is a thing is levels and everybody is at a different level and so the person that you inspire to be like may be level at level 100 and you may be at level 50 and the person who's complimenting you may be at level 10 they're complimenting you on your level 50 experiences and you may be rejecting their their compliment focusing on that level 100 person that you inspire to be like but one thing to keep in mind is that artists are constantly improving and evolving so there are there are levels beyond level 100 and this chain of levels go on and on and you as the level 50 artists may see level 100 as the pinnacle and may not be able to experience what's beyond level 100 until you get to level 100 likewise for the person that's that level 10 giving you that compliment and say that that's that's some good experience you got there buddy and so will the person be a bad artist for being at level 50 no will the person be a bad artist for being at level 10 no will the person be a bad artist for being at level 1 of course not they haven't even started yet but to get into our minds that there aren't there isn't such a thing as go to a bad and art there's just levels that is stuff and to the artist that get discouraged of drawing and don't try and attempt at all think in terms of a video game usually when people play video games they don't automatically label themselves as bad even though they're starting out as level 1 it doesn't mean that they're bad they just haven't gained the experience yet of the entire game and how do you gain the experience by you know grinding up beating up enemies gaining experience points to boost up your levels and that's how you go about the game likewise for drawing and the skill that you desire as you're starting out as a level 1 artist or so you will get it you will eventually get it most definitely all that's needed is your experience knowing where to gain the get the most education out of what you want to learn knowing what things you've got to challenge yourself to gain to go to the next level likewise for a video game like you don't want to to go to the next level you don't want to keep beating down on level 1 enemies you want to gain more experience by gaining going to more powerful enemies so that you can gain gain the most beneficial experience points and grow faster and so the secret why other artists advance further compared to others and whatnot is they know how to learn properly they know where to find the experience that they need it's like in a video game think of an artist or you know you're training up to be to gain more experience grow more powerful you don't want to constantly be training up on level 1 cheap enemies you know that's like level 1 stuff and you're doing this for like 10 years that's how you grow very slowly and you can grow really fast in one to three years if you know which enemies give the most experience points slash in art in artist terms were to learn your art properly or so and what I need to challenge myself on etc and so that will be the video thank you guys for watching peace and god and set up subscribing to our family so you can hit that and don't forget to hit the red bell button for to get notified for when I upload every Saturday so when you click that you'll see this you can click the chat box to send notifications for you and then just save it I also provide you guys a discord or place to chat my discord will be available in the link down below I provide references you know for anyone that want to you know look into it you know so I have references for you know ears breasts you know front torso back torso etc and including hands as well and this is where you can you know just chat with the family and you can share your artwork here etc that's just the basis of the discord check it out what not and I'll be the video thank you guys for watching peace out
