Dear readers,
I had a realization today that I need to take my time and work on things a little bit more if I want to be proud of the work I put out into the world.
I sang at my second open mic night and was so nervous I forgot the words to one of my songs! I worked through it and nobody was able to tell (I hope) but I knew I was going in rushed and ultimately it could’ve been easily avoided.
After reading some other’s writing and feeling incredibly inspired I realized I feel the same way (again) about my work on substack.
I’ve decided that I am going to play at an open mic every other week until I feel more confident in my skills so I have more time to rehearse before trying my songs out in front of a crowd. I also am going to set an every other week goal for my newsletter through here for the time being.
Work has just picked back up for me and I’m feeling the adjustment period pretty hard. Suddenly I have less free time! Prioritizing and scheduling here I come! I am trying to live my life very intentionally right now!
Thank you to everyone who is here with me in this space and takes the time to read what I put out. It means a lot to me and I’m forever grateful.
See y’all next week!
