We tend to think too much or too little of our efforts…
‘I’m going to be as big as the Beatles’
Can quickly turn into…
‘I suck at music’
Most likely neither are true.
At certain critical moments in life it helps to have a few trusted people in your life to ask what they think. Is this any good? Should I keep giving time and energy to this? Is my outlook reasonable? What do you see that I’m not seeing?
It’s hard to ask those questions but it’s perhaps even harder to have already cultivated those trusted relationships that you can lean on when you need to ask the questions.
