The Joyologist's View

Music Madness

Do you sometimes feel like you've bitten off more than you can chew?

I feel like that some days with music.

Since moving back to Louisiana, I have basically started adding an entire new subgenre of songs (traditional jazz) to my repertoire, which means a lot of practice and occasional baptism by fire.

It's exciting AND equally terrifying :)

On the days when I'm feeling more overwhelm than enthusiasm for extra work I'm putting in to prepare, it's important to pause and look back at how far I've come.

You can do this, too, for anything you're currently working on.

Incorporating this practice into life regularly can put things into perspective and help you not only ACCEPT where you are in that moment (or even feel joy for it) but also recognize just how far you've come (and celebrate that).
​

It's a simple technique that works wonders. Try it and let me know what you think!
​
With gratitude,
Ashley
