We all love to live the dream, but eventually you have to wake up.
3 years ago, I would have said what I can do on the piano is impossible. Well, it is possible. I remember back in high school having this idea of sitting down and impressing everyone with my playing, getting compliments and all that good stuff, and now... yeah, it is happening.
I go into saying that because, it was one of my largest dreams that I have somewhat succeeded at, but now that I am here, I am not wanting to stop that progression forwards. I know I have a bunch left to learn, more than I have already learned, and despite me being where I wanted to in the past, I dream further, and want to keep going.
This piano playing has in all honesty been weed and trauma fueled to get me where I am today, things that I don't really want in my life, even with the silver lining of the piano. But these days I find it hard to focus, and put in the work needed to keep going. Even with those two things it is starting to become hard. Looking for ways to keep this passion going. As much as a drive is important, you can't drive around a road block, where passion shoots the acceleration pedal before hand right through the blockades that come up.
I am thinking a balanced life style. Make it so where it is not just piano in my life that is meaningful. Establish other creative outlets, and take in the world around me to drive inspiration. But in general, or specifics I am looking for more tips.
