Creative Entitlement

"Creative entitlement simply means believing that you are allowed to be here and, merely by being here, you are allowed to have a voice and a vision of your own.

The poet David Whyte calls this sense of creative entitlement "the arrogance of belonging".

Often, what keeps you from creative living is your self-absorption (your self-doubt, your self-disgust, your self-judgment, your crushing sense of self-protection). The arrogance of belonging pulls you out of the darkest depths of self-hatred - not by saying "I am the greatest!" but merely by saying "I am here!"
