i’ll do it as soon as…

i’ll write the “album of my dreams” as soon as i have a bigger audience.

i’ll make my show “bigger and better” as soon as i get booked for bigger shows.

i’ll take more "creative risks” as soon as i have more career security.

having a “big idea” in your head is the safest place to live. and it’s comforting, living in that dream world.

but real art is putting it out there. you’re exposed and it’s scary. and yes, maybe it doesn’t pan out (it often doesn’t). 

but i’d rather have tried and failed than to think 20 years later… “maybe it could have worked?”
