Have you ever been so concerned about getting something “perfect” or “right” that you just never made it happen? You spent all your time and energy trying to figure out the “best way” to do that thing or achieve that goal that you never actually took action (or sufficient action) to move toward it?
Most people have encountered this at some stage in one or more aspects of their lives and in varying degrees. I confess that I have been in this situation on more than one occasion…Yes, in regards to my pursuit of dance (which I will elaborate on at some future time) but also regarding this very blog! I’ve umm’d and arhh’d and procrastinated since starting it some time ago - trying to figure out exactly what to write about and how to present information that will be of value to you, that it has gotten in the way of me just being myself and being honest…and resulting in infrequent posts.
This is not a long post - mainly just to let you know what I’ve been thinking and to advise that The Dancers Portal is going to be different from now on - to beginning with I’m just going to share…It may sound a little self indulgent but please know that my intention is just to develop a little bit of a relationship with you, so that you can get to know me and feel comfortable sharing your stories and ideas for what content you would like The Dancers Portal to cover.
I really want to grow and develop this blog and the associated web page so that it is a place of education and inspiration for all types of dancers - as well as a great reference for link to other research and great dance related events, competitions and products, so please always feel welcome to leave comments.
Look forward to talking with you all again soon.
With each new day there is another opportunity to dance, so until we have our next encounter on The Dancers Portal be sure to get those bodies moving!!
