I agree. This a great reminder to keep going no matter what expectations or goals you have set for yourself in this moment. As long as you put in the persistent practice, opportunities will arrive almost effortlessly. And if they don’t, well, at least you can say that you are really really good at your craft!
So much goodness here again, Kara. The timing of your words has been impeccable, and they are reasonating and motivating me deeply. For example, I have been waiting for that HR manager to remember I exist and offer me a position for 6+ months now. So I am energetically moving on and starting to make moves...and trying to reframe icky tasks like resume-building as creative. :) Thank you so much for the inspiration, again!
I also adored this poignant reminder - "And the promised land you hoped to find—the one full of stability, praise, and instant success—isn't a place you arrive. The promised land is the place you already are, the one brimming with endless potential, the one where you're in charge."
Oh Leah I have been in that same position and can commiserate! And I also remember that the moment I stopped waiting for the phone to ring (aka for my inbox to light up) other opportunities started rushing in to fill its place. Easier remembered than done, I know, but I have faith you can mold those creative projects and create, create, create! Remember you are worth more than all the time spent waiting <3

Yes, exactly! Should we get hats with "Persistent Practice" on them? Thanks for this extra boost today -- I needed to hear it!
