Hold On or Let Go?
Grasping for straws. Holding on for dear life. The common phrases of hopeless desperation ring out from the world of uncertainty. How can we be certain about anything? The next minute? The next breath? The next day? The past doesn't predict the future, but it may assume there will be one. Do we hold on to the angst, or let go and enter our own flow?
Letting go of self-judgment and self-criticism are great activities to free the creative flow, the creative mind. When I did that, I wrote over 4,000 pieces of music since 2014. Before that, I had only written about 500. The thinking goes away and is replaced with the doing of creation. Do you have to believe that? No.
Many of us may be standing in our own way, or stuck as if in concrete. I've been there. It's not force that frees us. Letting go, because we are the legs AND the concrete.
Serenity and freedom are waiting. Let go of judgment and self-criticism and create your one voice, your unique sound and find the sounds you enjoy to hear. Hear them come out of you and if they are not, there are keys to some of the unlocked doors, to find freedom, hope, and expression.
I believed that I was good enough to be on stage in a show in Las Vegas and only had to share a recording that got me in. My audition was for the cast. The producer already accepted my being good enough. I did prepare extensively, honing my sound three hours a day for a year, I paid my dues, one could say. Letting go of the self-criticism and building on the good helped me let go of the frustration from self-judgment.
Let go and go!
