Sunday Dreams and Fears


Sunday Dreams and Fears

Fear is the biggest obstacle to progress, for dancers and everyone else. You know what I mean. Fear of pushing for that extra pirouette, fear of failing an audition, or fear of not getting the role you want in the next big production.

Fear is a barrier. It halts progress in its tracks. So instead of focusing on fears, focus on dreams. Give all your energy to your dreams, and it will begin to cancel out the fear. Imagine success, imagine a great performance, imagine doing that extra pirouette. Visualize everything. Studies have shown how powerful visualization is, and you use it all the time in dance class, right?

Put your efforts and thoughts on your dreams, not your fears.

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets:

Motivational Secret #96:  
“Give as much energy to your dreams as you do to your fears.”
