Viena asked how I kept my attitude and mindset in the right place when things weren’t going well.
The right people around you
Before you get on this lonely journey, make sure you have the people you regard as family. Family doesn’t have to be your blood. It can be specific people you think about whenever you’re going through that journey; people who are going to help motivate you and put you in the right place.
Exercise, exercise, exercise
Whether you’re going to the gym or doing a home workout, whatever it is, make sure you’re getting it in. Even if you’re walking every day, get those walks in. Whenever that moment comes, get yourself doing something other than what might bring you stress. Exercise will help you maintain a positive attitude.
3. You must be self-motivated
You must want this. For me, I’ve accepted that I’m doing this forever. Whether the game acknowledges me at any level or not, I ACKNOWLEDGE ME. I’ve accepted that. Because of that acceptance, it’s easier now. It doesn’t feel like I’m chasing anything.
I’m wearing this hat as well as helping other aspiring artists and broadcasters because I know what it’s like to be where you guys are. I know what it’s like to not have the answers. I know what it’s like for someone not to assist me or guide me. I know what it’s like. I genuinely do.
As an independent artist with integrity, vision and knowledge of self, you must accept that the only people who will jump on board with you truly believe in that exact type of journey. You don’t have to convince them. “We are also like that so we are joining you, we’re supporting you, and helping”.
You need these three things to maintain a positive attitude.
The people you hang around with matter, don’t discuss your dreams with just anybody. Keep your big ideas to yourself. Share them with family or respected peers.
Beyond that, keep to yourself, stay focused, and stay grinding.
How do you stay motivated?
Until next time,
