I noticed I'm transitioning. I love being around my friends who have children. Or are preggo. They seem to have priorities other than career and to really appreciate life and live in the moment. They have wisdom and stillness. And I crave that right now.
I love my career. I love what I do and I feel truly blessed that I am able to do it. And that I have a partner I can share all this with. But my career is not my everything. Its a fraction of who I am. Its interesting - the more that things go well career-wise, the more I want to focus on my personal life. I feel good about where things are at right now. Like I can sit back (well, sorta.....) and breath and enjoy my accomplishments.
Every day is a challenge when you are living a life in the arts. Juggling everything is extremely challenging, money is a pain in the arse sometimes. Dont think that just because things are going well right now that I dont have these issues sometimes. Do your best to keep it real, keep it light!
All I can say is hang in there. And the biggest lesson I've learned recently, and its hard for me too....is to focus. Its easy to get really distracted. So choose one thing you want to do and do it well. This year for me it was my solo show....and that went well - I was fortunate -- I know.
Oh, and have fun. That would be numero uno on the list -- :)
