It’s easy to get caught in thinking that there’s a lot of really accomplished musicians out there and how can I really compete with them. Thoughts and feeling of lack never get to the source of the issue. Which I think is this. Wherever we are in our development on our instrument, we can tap into the source, a real creative fountain. This is the same well the greats tap into or anyone who plays an instrument. And when we connect, we pulse to a different clock. I know it may sound heady and all but it’s a beautiful feeling when it’s happening even if you have less technique than others. It feels like speaking, having a dialog through your instrument in your own unique way. Whenever I connect it feels like I’ve moved aside and gotten out of the way, the mental chatter has calmed down……… I don’t think I’m giving justice to something that is non-verbal and probably better off so……………… I’m done. Find that portal for yourself into another dimension or whatever you may call it where you can find a space for creating in your own way.
