Hello.
The purpose of this meditation is to have you step out of being an imposter and into being an artist.
We all deal with imposter syndrome at some point in our journey.
How you feel now may actually never change.
It may be something that's just always a part of you.
I know that's hard to hear,
But hopefully by the end of this,
You will be able to transform your relationship to that feeling.
Remember,
Sucking at something is the first step to kind of being good at something.
So on your path to mastery,
Just know you're stepping through every phase that you need to.
This is all part of it.
You're doing just fine.
I want you to close your eyes and transport into the future.
Five years,
What are you doing with your art?
How do your fans look?
How much money are you making?
How many fans do you have?
How do you feel about yourself?
And how do you feel about your art?
Now fast forward another five years,
So ten years from now,
What do you look like?
What does your art look like?
What do your fans look like?
How many fans do you have?
What does the process feel like when you're making the art?
Who are you collaborating with?
Now,
Let's pretend that you are that person right now,
And you're looking back ten years at the person that you are now.
What would you say to this person?
Would you tell them not to be afraid?
Would you tell them to trust the process?
Would you thank them for all the hours of work that they're doing?
All the leaps of faith that they have taken?
What would you want to hear now from that person in the future?
Would you want to hear that it's going to all be okay?
I want you to get that this part of the roller coaster ride right here,
Right now,
Is the most important part,
Because it's the only part that has uncertainty.
Gambling would not be exciting if you knew the outcome already.
Every time you open the door,
You don't know what's on the other side,
And that's what makes it exciting.
The more of a master you become,
The less chance there is in opening those doors.
Then you're just coasting,
And you actually look back and miss the part where you had imposter syndrome.
So believe it or not,
This is the highlight of your career,
Right here,
Right now.
If you ever look at an action movie,
Where there's a superhero or a villain that's really strong and nobody can fight them,
They're always bored,
Because they know the outcome.
So remember,
The grass is always greener on the other side.
Embrace not knowing.
Embrace not fitting in,
Because that's what's going to make your art special.
I have a few affirmations.
Repeat after me.
I am on an amazing journey.
I am grateful to be a student of such a worthy craft.
I am honored to have artists that I look up to.
I am honored to have artists that look up to me.
No one is better at making my art than I am.
So I have a responsibility to show up powerfully.
I love myself.
I love where I am at.
And I love my art.
It feels amazing to contribute my art to society.
I hope this will help you to move forward powerfully and make the next piece of art that you're ready to make,
That the world is desiring from you.
Stop listening to this until you are always in action.
Much love,
Much power,
Much respect.
