Rather then address where to start....make a point of examining on where you\'ve been and where you\'re going with your photography.
Many a time I\'ve looked back on where I was going with my photography. I usually came to the same conclusion that many of my periods, times when I felt like I was going nowhere, were due to my own ego. I was so busy comparing myself to others and competing against them that I’d lost sight of my initial goal which was to focus on my personal development in the photography..
The most important thing to remember is that this is your art. You have to make it yours if you want to become proficient at it. Once you realize that you are developing your own unique representation of the art, you\'ll also realize that it is pointless to compete against others. You should be focused inwardly on your own development and become completely unhindered by the progress of others.
The learning years is your time to experiment and strengthen your own skill. If the main reason is to show how much better you are against others, then you are simply setting yourself up for a huge disappointment.
