Keep Moving Forward

As we are starting out, or growing into new levels of playing, we do well to remember that our expectations and our critical awareness will always outpace our level of execution. We gotta be ok with that. Accept that you are where you are, with the understanding that you are doing the work to move toward your goals. Then keep moving forward. Sometimes, it's like that bad dream where the goal feels like it's moving away from you the harder you try to reach it. That's normal. But welcome that moment when you realize, "Hold on. I'm actually playing far better than I was only [x] days/weeks/months ago!" Keep it light. Then, keep moving forward.
