Let's dive into my deep theories about life, shall we? I just wanted to give you a glimpse into what started my passionate journey to discover why so many brilliantly talented artists are struggling to make ends meet. In most fields, in most jobs and careers... if you're in the top 10% with your skill level, then you are making loads of money. Why isn't that the case for all artists? I have many theories about that, but today we will discuss what I believe is the formula for success instead of the formula I used to believe : Hard work + Time = Success.

May 2021 I made some WILDLY outrageous goals. I was very public about them to keep myself committed, so when I didn't reach them it was slightly embarrassing...but the fact that I was willing to CONTINUE even despite the shame I felt, I knew I had found something I loved. I LOVE doing what I do. I'm so CLEAR on why I do it and how I want to do it, that I'm willing to fail. What are your big goals? If you let yourself believe it's possible, then it doesn't matter what the rest of the world thinks. https://courses.alyciapace.com/
