The best thing you can do today to move in the diection of your dreams is to confront your fear of failure. Take a moment to acknowledge your fear, really feel it, then let it go.
Why should you acknowledge it first?
Because your fear is bringing your attention to a wall that is keeping you from progressing. If you try to ignore it, it will only get bigger, and you’ll also be ignoring what’s on the other side. Once you face those parts of your dreams that lie beyond your comfort zone, you can move into them and make your comfort zone expand with every step.
Even if you fail, you will get to know the terrain a little better, and you can apply that knowledge to your next step.

Who is this Escapee guy anyway?
For those of you who just can’t get enough Illustration goodness, I’m introducing a new weekly feature on EFII: Escapee Speaks.
You see, the Escapee is something of an oracle when it comes to Illustration. It’s no accident that he’s the mascot for Escape From Illustration Island, because he is a veteran of the island himself. The wisdom he has earned from centuries of struggle and triumph could stand toe-to-toe with the great spiritual texts of our people, and he has agreed to share them with us.
However, to reveal to us the whole sum of his great knowledge in one holy breath would indeed drive us to Illustration Insanity. Therefore he has wisely chosen to share these truths over time, in digestible, bite-sized bits, so that we may come to understand the way to Illustration greatness.
And our brains won’t explode.
Thank you, Escapee.
When selecting which of your Illustrations to include in your portfolio, focus on quality. Avoid the temptation to throw everything you’ve got into the mix.
It’s a good idea to “skim the fat”.
In other words, review your own portfolio on a regular basis, and remove anything you’re not completely sure about. You don’t want to dilute the waters of your own greatness by including mediocre pieces for the sake of presenting a large body of work.
Your portfolio is your chance to make an Art Director fall in love with you. Don’t ruin the opportunity by talking their ear off on the first date while only having a few good things to say.
