Going through a major transition right now. That last post was just more resistance, more fear, more avoidance, blah. It's a true testament to how those doubts can worm their way into your mind and drag you back down into your old reality. Here's what I've learned.
I've got it all backwards. I keep waiting for outside evidence or things to happen before I believe them. I wait to see proof then I believe. The problem with this is the belief HAS to come first. Otherwise I'm operating from the belief that it's not possible and that's my reality. I'm just hoping that maybe one day things will be different and that screws me up. I've always had this wishy washy attitude of if it happens it happens, if it doesn't it doesn't. It's not indifference, it was a way to shield me from potential failure or even trying in the first place. Thinking things like "it wasn't meant to be" they are just poisonous for the mind.
Life isn't as complicated to figure out as most of us think at times. It's really down to finding out what you want to do and disregard all the bullshit that stands in your way. That's it. The problem is some of us don't have belief in ourselves or we value the experiences of others around us more than our own intuition.
For me music has always been my dream. I went from thinking it was completely impossible, to thinking maybe eventually I could get signed on a small indie label, to starting to believe that it's all about my mindset and I can do this. I recognize that there are a lot of fears surrounding becoming more well known with my music. There are also a lot of beliefs about money in general. I decided the other day this humble borderline poverty mentality has to go. Being wealthy doesn't make you a bad person. And being a starving artists doesn't make you anymore authentic than the guy blowing up the mainstream doing what he loves and making a living. There's a lot I need to work on with regards to this goal. I think a sub with dmsi tech but targeted towards creative goals would be amazing. All those manifestations guys are getting with girls, imagine that with fans, other artists, or opportunities to help you get financial success with your art.
