Ready to win the battle of YOU v/s YOUR NEGATIVE THOUGHTS? Let’s go!

  • Have a great morning routine- 
    Morning rituals are great to break off the negativity of the past day and begin working with a freshmind. The rituals can be related to music or not related to them, but they must be incorporated in your lifestyle. Otherwise, you tend to be more open and an easy prey to the distractions. All this helps you in finding the right balance between instinctive and deliberate thinking that is of paramount importance for your art. 
  • Make a great self-image-
    “What myth am I living?” Ask yourself this question to overcome your self- doubt. If the self image you have is negative you will always end up doubting your skills and potential. This thought pattern can grow over time and rust your efficiency. Do things to break your thought pattern, start with reacting differently by working on your self-image. Make yourself the hero. 
  • Fall in love with what you have-

You might not be where you thought you would be or wanted to be in your music journey but have you evr looked back? Try to take out offew minutes to really look back the past years and see how much you have grown, recognise your achievements. Look at all the people who believe in you, love our music and all that you have in your life, cherish it. Aim for better things in life but don’t let them make you restless! 

  • Abandon your doubt-
    To abandon doubt you must always work on every doubt you have in your mind. They sabotage your confidence immensely. Such doubts must be abandoned, otherwise they get programmed in your mind and keep recurring even at slightest inconvenience. . Whenever it strikes, try to replace it wit a positive and healthy thought.
  • Have a plan-
    Give yourself a purpose and plan to work on each day. Planning the tasks for next day in advance gives you purpose and keeps you on track. But, if you fail, also remember that finding purpose can a little tricky. Keep asking yourself questions and trying new ways, whatever works, choose that and stick to it.
