There are periods where I simply can't create.
I open my tools at old ideas, references, unfinished projects, but nothing moves forward.
Many projects never go further than an early draft. Some stop halfway, others don't even start. Not because they're bad ideas, or technically too difficult, but because I lose clarity along the way.
That's where frustration kicks in. I want to create, but I can't figure what or how. Every attempt feels forced and nothing feels right enough to continue.
During those phases, I start questioning things like my skills, my relevance, etc. Quiet doubts, but persistent ones.
What makes it harder is the absence of visible progress, when I have nothing to show, no output to justify the time spent. I'm left with this feeling of being stuck.
I'm slowly accepting that these moments are part of the process. That's not productive in the usual sense, but it's necessary.
Creation doesn't stop, it just becomes invisible for a while.
