Listen "167 - 3 Signs of Perfectionist Sabotage"
Episode Synopsis
👀 Do you have a suspicion that perfection may be sabotaging you?
🚨 If you’re a musician who is striving for perfection, it may actually be undermining your progress creatively, professionally and connecting with others.
🎙 If this resonates with you, then check out my podcast episode A Drummer's Guide To… 3 Signs of Perfectionist Sabotage
🛑 Here are the 3 most prominent signs for me that I see within myself and students that perfectionist tendencies are creating a big old BLOCK!
1️⃣ Not posting to social media when you know it will benefit your career and expand your network.
2️⃣ Saying no to opportunities because you don’t feel you’re ready.
3️⃣ Feeling physical tension or stress in my body in rehearsals or on a gig because of fear of making a mistake.
🫠 If you’d like to dive deeper into these blocks you may be encountering too, and how to counter them, then check out my podcast episode, A Drummer's Guide To... 3 Signs of Perfectionist Sabotage
🎧 …and if you’d like to lift the curtain further on all the other things it takes to be a professional musician, aside from playing your instrument, then look for A Drummer's Guide To... on all good podcasting platforms and YouTube
