Or, as Buddhism teaches, you’ll have a happier and more successful life if you learn to hold things lightly. It is possible to have great passion for the work you are doing, without being overly attached to specific results. Always do your best, but realize that your “desired outcome” should often be just to find out what works and what doesn’t. That way you can save the time and effort you might otherwise spend feeling disappointment and self-pity when something you’ve created doesn’t yield the results you expected.
Once you’re perspective shifts in this way, you go from someone terrified of failure and become someone thoroughly enjoying the great adventure of what life can bring you!

This is one of the advantages of getting older as we learn to relax and accept. Go with the flow. It definitely has been true in my life that "less is more". So many things that I, as a performer, allow to bother me are not even noticed by anyone else. Striving for greatness is a noble goal but discovering one's self and your unique gifts are an inspired goal! I thoroughly enjoy your posts, my friend!
