Your New Life Is Going To Cost You Your Old One

Hey Kevin Pritchett here:

       I want you to think on that sentence above…I mean REALLY THINK about it.   In every area of life you seek to change, in order to get that

change you have to stop doing the things that don’t work in order to take on

 the things that get you your desired result.

For example

==   to lose weight you stop eating burgers and fries and start eating greens

==   to deal with an abusive relationship you must first adjust YOURSELF
and stop allowing that person or ANYONE to abuse you,  give up the
abusive person,  make peace with being alone for a time  and  make a         new space for a new companion

==   to improve your career you have to move past your old outdated set of          skills  and acquire new ones

    And on it goes in all areas of human endeavor……

              .  You CANNOT acquire new while clinging to the old.

     Right now I’m experiencing this very phenomenon in my musicianship.

For 40 years..yes 40 YEARS, I’ve sung choral classical music.  I’ve become pretty darn good now…

==  I perform with 2 semi-professional ensembles; often with a world class
orchestra.

==  I’ve completed a number of professional recordings and numerous tours

     I started studying the piano when I was 30 but  I have not developed that skill as much as I’ve developed singing.  However, after 40 years, I’m finding I want to play piano (jazz, rock ) more than I want to sing.

     Here’s the rub…..I’m a WAY better singer than I am piano player..and
its HARD giving up the high a caliber musical ensembles I

perform with and begin my learning curve at a much lover musical level with the piano.

But the TRUTH for me is I no longer desire to sing and

the longer I ignore that calling, the more out of alignment I will be and unhappy and unfulfilled musically. I will be.   The new musical life I desire
will cost me my old familiar musical life.

      And the same for you!!

      If you desire a different, better , more fulfilling life….

You’re MUST give up the tired, old, unsatisfying life you now lead.

The irony of it is…there’s SO MUCH of your life you desperately desire

to change…but you just won’t.  For example

You hate being broke….

You hate being afraid of layoffs

You hate not having the money to travel, buy what you want, care for your family…

But you’re unwilling or afraid  or just plain too stubborn to give up the old

and embrace the new possibilities….WHY IS THAT????
