Hi, Steemians!
Do you ever Catch Yourself worrying about how your work or craft will be received by others?
"What if my boss does not like this presentation?"
"What if no any one likes this article I write?"
"What if no one cares about my content or blog? "
The last one? I'll be honest:
This 'what if' has circled around my mind more than few times as I have spent the past days working on my articles.
I have several variations of it, however basically they boil all the way down to a worrying concerning one thing i am unable to control:
How other peoples will react the fruits of my efforts.
Last week I was in Islamabad, Pakistan, recording my Content. As I read the last chapter, there were tears in my eyes. It was very emotional and I was all in, just focusing what I was reading, on putting my whole heart behind every word
In these moments,
I was not thinking about what anyone would think about this article. I was just doing work, as best as possibly i can . No 'what if' scenarios, good or bad, distracted my energy away from what I was doing.
That felt awesome.
I love doing the work, even though it was a lot harder than I anticipated.
I felt awesome at the end of the day, feeling that I had done my best.
This experience reminder me about how much joy we can find in our efforts & how much energy we can waste by worrying about the outcome of our work.
Do work and detach from the outcome.
It is not a easy practice, but the more you practice doing it, the more your work and your well-being will benefit.

A BIG HUG...!!!!!
