I SHOULDN'T WANT IT TOO MUCH....
I Have a great opportunity and I’m trying not to want it too much. Every time I really want it I never get it but when it doesn’t matter, those are the ones that want me. As I’m preparing I’m trying hard to convince myself of how much I DON’T care about it.
WHY? Of course you want it and what’s so wrong with that. You would not be human if you didn’t want something that could grow your career, fulfill a goal or increase your financial stability. You didn’t become an artist because you didn’t want it. You absolutely want it. Don’t spend energy fooling yourself. Use wanting it to propel you to do your best work. You may feel if you want it too much it will be too disappointing if you didn’t get it. You will be hurt and disappointed whether you play mind games with yourself or not. Your spirit knows how you really feel. You could actually get it. If you approached it from a place of hunger and deep desire, your work will be much more interesting and you will have so much more fun because you are choosing to be honest with yourself. Take the opportunity to show your work, work on your craft and do your best. Enjoy every moment of sharing your artistry with all those in the room, all the while wanting it with all of your heart. In the end whether you get it or not. You did work you could be proud of and you didn’t let wanting it make you too nervous to perform your best. You are worthy of all you desire. Besides, how can you pray for something you don’t want. Be honest with yourself, want it, pray for it, visualize it, embrace it. Whatever the outcome, you were true to yourself, your desires and that truth showed in your work. You nailed it!
