Our festival yesterday was magnificent.

It had exactly the right atmosphere and combination of elements. It had the right energy and the right people to make it great.

I’m really tired today, but it’s a satisfying kind of tired, like when you can tell that your hard work paid off.

But even as I have been enjoying this feeling of having my hard work pay off, I can’t help but think of the fact that it’s always possible with a festival that your hard work won’t pay off that you won’t get the right combination of people or the right number of people attending to make things right.

What I’m trying to do is enjoy this feeling of satisfaction, of a job well done, and to recognize that my team would’ve done a good job even if we hadn’t gotten all the people we wanted to at the event.

Just like in so many other areas of life, I’m trying to practice letting go of the outcome and letting the work be enough.

It is definitely not easy though. ?
