“Comparison is the thief of joy.” - Theodore Roosevelt
In the age of Instagram, it’s hard not to get caught in the comparison trap...to see someone else having success and to lament that you're not experiencing the same.
Success looks different at each stage of your business - the keyword there being “your.” You can't compare your vision of success to anyone else's vision of success - especially when they're in a different season.
Inside our mentoring program, I get to walk with so many different artists in different stages of life. I also get to help those artists define what success looks like for each of them in their own season of life and business.
There are so many different variables that determine your own personal path to success, including:
✔️ Time that you may or may not have available
✔️ Funds that you have to invest in your craft
✔️ Skills that you've developed over time
✔️ Willingness to travel for shows
✔️ Desire to learn the latest technology
✔️ Financial rewards you're looking to reap
Whatever your current season, it's important for you to slow down and think, “What does success look like for me in this season of my life?” Remember that you can find joy in each season - if you allow yourself to experience it.
On this week’s episode of 5-Minute Mentoring, we’re talking about how to run your own race and find success no matter what season you’re in in your art, business, or life.
Defining your own success metrics is one of the keys to thriving as a Christian artist. To help you along this journey, I've developed a brand-new free resource - click below and I’ll send it right to you!
