What really motivates you

What really motivates you

Posted in Play: January 2018

Take the time you need and look for what you love to do and what really motivates you as a musician. Which of the activities you practice brings you joy, satisfaction and fulfillment? Maybe you have been thinking about some of them for a long time, but you have not had the opportunity or time to explore them more. I don't ask you to stop with what are you doing right now or to quit your job. I just ask you to open yourself and to start practicing those activities which brings you joy. Use your creativity and imagination and write them down right now.

What I like / would like to do and what really motivates me:

Example: I want to play concerts: solo / chamber music / orchestra / modern music / film music /ambient music / jazz / I want to teach / compose /conduct / organize events to attend etc.

Suggestion:

Once you discover these activities, try to practice them as often as possible. Enjoy your unique qualities and create your own path. Dare to be yourself not only on stage, but also in the way you choose to live your life. Let yourself be driven by what you like to do and by what really motivates you.

Wonderful advice.
For me the light bulb-moment was I saw the photo of the notebook and pen. Once you force yourself to write things down, change begins.
Thank you for sharing.
