Some more ranting:
My vision board has plenty of materialistic things on it. I ran RoM and felt this intense connection to get in touch with my spirituality and I did, and then I got upset that it got me off track from the exam - just the nature of RoM feels like it’s not meant for the kind of grit focus.
Then, I have been struggling with integrating spirituality into my material pursuits. My girlfriend tells me that I must look at my progress and just the growth I’ve had. She genuinely was concerned with the pressure I was putting on myself. Sometimes I felt, yeah I can’t take this. Makes me worried what if I don’t make it to the top.
Sometimes I feel, I am 21 and maybe I shouldn’t put much pressure on myself?
But again, I remember at 18 I had made about 200 songs and genuinely had a chance at music, a famous producer was ready to mentor me, but I was not allowed to pursue that because of “college”. Whatever that shit was, I mean really - I did learn a lot - about hiding my frustrations. Looking at my life now, I feel annoyed and upset - I could have been a pretty famous musician! Again, I know I am hoping and drawing timelines but, I really was confident.
What stops me from pursuing that now?
It’s that I want to have a solid foundation but do I? Do I? I have RM:V and I could run it, but I feel scared. I feel like I should be GOOOOOD at one thing and not MANYYYY things.
But fuck that shit. I have my whole life ahead of me. I am going to RUN RM:V. I am not going to teach music, atleast right now.
God, this exam seems like a blockage. That’s stopping me from living my life.
It feels relieving to just write.
