Remaining Optimistic Even When Prospects Seem Low

As mentioned in past posts, as I’m getting older I find myself more cognizant of the direction my life is headed.

Asking myself where I want to be, and what it’s going to take to get there.

However, I also realize that things aren’t just going to fall in my lap, and that I can’t rush the process.

Remaining Grateful

Overall, I am fortunate to be in a great position for my age. I have a lot of good things going for me. But at the same time, there are also moments where it’s hard to see how it’s all going to work out in the long run.

Right now I am mainly just trying things out to see what clicks. My music has always been my main focus, but even there I am always making adjustments.

However, it can be hard when it feels like things aren’t growing as much as I would like them to.

It seems like I can only remain at the same level for so long and still feel as engaged.

And sometimes it’s hard to decipher whether I am actually getting somewhere or am just wasting my time.

Taking The Pressure Off

Like I have said many times, I am fortunate because I have a lot of options in life, and I don’t have a lot of things holding me back.

However, at this age it’s also easier for me to be more realistic.

In the past it was easy to remind myself that I could go anywhere and do anything, but as I’ve gotten older I’m realizing that just because the opportunity is there doesn’t mean it’s going to pan out that way.

Even outside of work, this is something I’m aware of.

At this point I have been turned down by enough jobs, dating prospects, and other opportunities to recognize that.

Enjoying What I Have

Overall I am confident in the direction I’m heading in. The most important thing is just to be patient and enjoy what I have for the time being.

It can feel challenging because it seems like I am getting older and time is slipping away, but the reality is that I am still very young.

Even when prospects seem low and it seems like things aren’t growing as fast as I want them to, I don’t give it much weight, and I know that things will be okay.

I feel fortunate just to get the opportunity to be on this path in the first place, and overall I am excited to continue to move forward.

Continuing To Step Up

Despite some of the things listed above, I am still continuing to find new ways to go about things, and that is something I feel excited about.

In fact, I would even go as far as to say that my next moves have the potential to be my best moves.

Sometimes feeling like prospects are low can be a good thing in that regard, because it almost forces you to dig in deeper to find what will work.
