Unleashing the Wealth of Your Creative Soul

Art Was Never Meant to Starve: Unleashing the Wealth of Your Creative Soul
Step Into Your Bold Destiny and Leave the Myth Behind

Let’s dismantle the starving artist myth once and for all. For centuries, the world told artists to play small, to accept scarcity as their fate. But let’s look at the truth: Michelangelo wasn’t just a genius; he was well-paid and sought after. Annie Leibovitz earns $30,000 a day because she dared to claim her worth. Today, countless artists, from painters in Chile to digital creators across the globe, are making millions because they chose not to live by someone else’s small story.

Think of the giants of innovation: Einstein, who redefined physics; Steve Jobs, who reshaped how we communicate; Tesla, who electrified the world. None of them settled for safe, and neither should you. Creativity isn’t about playing it safe; it’s about stepping into a larger vision, feeling the fire of your own potential, and knowing that abundance flows from that boldness.

So here it is: art was never meant to starve. Your creative soul is a powerhouse of wealth, not just in money but in the impact you’re here to make. Let’s unleash that. Let’s rewrite the narrative from Michelangelo to you, and let’s show the world that when you dare to dream bigger, you don’t just change your life—you change the world.

So let’s talk real names and real numbers. Right now, artists like Jeff Koons and Yayoi Kusama are making millions. Koons’ work has sold for over $90 million, and Kusama’s iconic sculptures are hitting multi-million-dollar marks. Painters like David Hockney and Ed Ruscha are also selling works in the tens of millions. On the author side, J.K. Rowling is sitting on a billion-dollar fortune, while James Patterson and Danielle Steel have each amassed hundreds of millions through their books.

And let’s not stop there. Consider that 99% of what we consume, our music, our movies, our social media, is creativity turned into thriving careers. There are authors you’ve never heard of making millions on self-published platforms, and digital artists turning NFTs into goldmines.

The point is, we’re living in a world where creativity is the engine of almost everything that inspires us. So let’s go bigger and bolder. Let’s recognize that stepping into your artistic destiny isn’t just possible; it’s already happening all around us. This is your call to join that movement.

Novum Publishing

When we talk about thriving self-published authors, think of Colleen Hoover, who started out independently and has sold over 20 million copies of her books. Hugh Howey, with his self-published sci-fi series "Wool," has sold over 3 million copies and struck hybrid deals. John Locke, who became the first self-published author to sell over a million eBooks on Amazon, turned his series into a multi-million-dollar success. And there’s LJ Ross, whose crime thrillers have sold over 10 million copies, and RR Haywood, known for the "Undead" series, with nearly 4 million copies sold. These are the bold creators proving that in today’s world, you can absolutely turn your art into a thriving, financially successful reality. So let’s embrace that and go bigger than ever! Spines

Marlene Dumas from South Africa recently sold a painting for $13.6 million, making her one of the most expensive living female artists. There’s also Yayoi Kusama, who’s become one of the top-selling contemporary artists globally, with her works fetching tens of millions of dollars. These are just a few examples of female painters making serious waves and high income in the art world right now.

READY TO DISSOLVE ANY LIMITING BELIEFS?

Here’s what I want you to do: sit down right now and give yourself one minute of box breathing. And as you do, when that old limiting belief pops up when you hear that whisper that says you can’t imagine it as a piece of taffy in your body. Gently pull it, stretch it out, and let it dissolve with every breath. Then replace it with the thought of your dream, hold onto that feeling of excitement and abundance. Don’t leave this world with your gifts unshared. You are not meant to play small. You are meant to play full out and big. This is your permission to believe in yourself, to know that the source of inspiration is infinite, and to step into the abundance that’s waiting for you.

Go out there and thrive. The world needs your art. The world needs your voice. And you are ready.

 

From my heart to yours,

Taylor
