I’ll make this short and sweet and to the point. I don’t want to be long-winded.
Now, finally Puerto Rico. There’s so much to do with very little time do it. Mostly work, but hopefully a little play, like some beach fun or zip lining too. For artists there are times when it seems your calendar is filled with more things to do, than the time you have to do it in, and the pressure is on. Not to mention when you factor in working with other people in a group capacity and trying to get everyone on the same page, it can be very difficult.
However as a professional artist, sometimes you just have to do what you have to do. The same goes for other aspects of life. The fact is life will always bring times of ups and downs, and sometimes when it’s down, you have to find a way to keep pushing through and moving forward in life, without stepping on other people. It’s not always easy, but finding that balance of thinking of yourself and thinking of others too is a good thing. It allows one to not be selfish and think that the world revolves around them. Rest assured that someone else could be going through the same thing you are going through or worse.
This is why you should never put your burdens on another person when at all possible. In other words don’t take your frustrations out on other people as if it’s all about you. Other people can have things going on too. Try to be considerate of other people, tell the truth and treat them the way you want to be treated. If you want people to be sensitive to your wants and needs, be sensitive to their wants and needs. You get what you give. Put out positive energy, get positive back, put out negative energy, you will get that back as well.
