My brilliant career

Wednesday, September 12th, 2007

It’s been a while since I’ve written about my ‘career’ and it’s because I am at a standstill performance wise.

The reason is that I’m writing a lot more and trying to focus on that aspect. Promoting one’s career is hard when you’re someone like me–easily distracted and terminally empathetic to others. Sometimes I wish I possessed the one characteristic that most materially successful seem to have and that’s being self-centered. You know, I just can’t do it. There’s more to life than my own needs and desires. Sure, I’d love to be onstage right now, performing my show, making people laugh and cry, think and interact, but I know when the time is right, I’ll have that opportunity. So what do I do in the meantime? I write. I listen to others. I keep my feet on the ground and my heart full of love and compassion.

And. I. Eat. Heh…you guys thought I was gonna say something deep, didn’t ya? Nope. No such luck. I’ve got one monkey off my back–no longer working at the studio. That’s a huge relief. As much as I enjoyed interacting with most of the customers, I feel as though it may have been crushing my spirit. I wasn’t happy. There is definitely something in that space that brings me down. The energy is off and I can’t live in negativity.

Did you notice how my posts were getting a little crabby? No es bueno, man. Gotta keep on bein’ positive, right? Well, here I am. Rock me like a hurricane.

Keep your dreams alive, kids. Anything is possible. Saying it can make it so, which is why I keep saying ‘my brilliant career’; it’s getting better all the time.
