doing things the write way.

It’s really starting to make sense.

Tony Robbins said that “Change happens when the pain of staying the same is greater than the pain of change.”

It’s been a struggle to figure out my musical path going forward. Music has always been my way of expressing myself creatively. My fear has been that by not playing and singing for audiences anymore, I’ll lose my creative juices and just feel empty.

I spoke with a very dear friend yesterday, who pointed out something very obvious to me, to which I’ve been incredibly oblivious. I’ve been writing this blog for almost five years. Even though 99% of this is stream of consciousness, it’s a different form of creative expression. Although the thought of writing term papers and thesis papers has always scared me to death, jotting down my thoughts seems like a breeze!

My new goal is to continue this blog until I’m 60….who knows what adventures will await me in the next five years! I’ve had a couple of challenging creative ideas I may pursue – I’ve always wanted to write a one-act play….maybe now is the time.

It’s time for change….it may be painful and challenging, but in the end, it will be worth it.

Why? Because it’s the “write” thing to do.
