In the book, "The Music Lesson: A Spiritual Search For Growth Through Music," Victor Wooten says that his mom used to tell him: "Your already successful, the rest of the world doesn't know it yet." He later translated that into musical terms: "Your already musical, you just don't know it yet." 🤔 How often do we let ourselves or someone else tell us that we aren't going to be successful, or that we can't do what we've set out to do? That negative self talk is what holds us back. You have to change by reminding yourself "I am a guitar hero!" 🤩 Being a hero at anything isn't easy. It takes great responsibility! Your responsible to others for lifting them up, and encouraging them. But if you don't feel encouraged and filled with excitement and hope for your future self, then it's hard to get other people on board. Trust me, I know! I've experimented with this for years. But not anymore! 😁 I'm determined to make this one of the best guitar communities here on Skool! But I need your help! I can't do this on my own. I need everyone in here! 😃 Engagement is back up, and that is a testament to all of you who are contributing to this community! I appreciate each and every one of you! There are few people who I haven't heard from in some time, so I'm going to do my best to chase them down. I'm determined to not let any lurkers reside here or any community I'm in. For more information about this from another community I'm in go here. So I'm looking for a little help from my friends. If you know someone in this group, who hasn't checked in in awhile please tag them in a comment, so we can get everyone onboard! Oh and it's a new month, July... I think I want to go to weekly challenges, instead of monthly. I'm going to attempt to keep the daily themes going, but just know that sometimes I get busy, a day may slip by me sometimes. 😏 I try to stay active here everyday, but with kids, and other responsibilities it can get pretty tricky... but I'm all in! 💯🤩
