The Path to Success

Last week, Megan Gebhart (check out her 52cupsofcoffee) tweeted, “Just reminded myself that every person’s path is different because every person is different. Comparing paths is unproductive.”

I love that reminder.

I’ve been often guilty of overly analyzing the success stories of my musical heroes–combing through bios, reading over Wikis, watching interview videos on Youtube–looking for the holy grail that leads to creative success. While it’s fun to research our heroes’ milestones, it’s more important to allow our lives to pave our own way.

The outside world loves to paint a simplified picture of the path to success; our inner hearts desire to paint our own.
