    Do you struggle with being a perfectionist? let me know :)

    • @likka_618
      @likka_618 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes, lol

    • @dronesclubhighjinks
      @dronesclubhighjinks ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, and no. Once I realized I could do well in school without being perfect, that helped a lot.
      When I started working, I realized we have to do the best we can, in the time in which we have, with the resources we have available right now. We might be able to do it better with more time, but there's no point in wasting energy thinking of hypotheticals.
      I'm pretty sure ballet, gymnastics and figure skating encourage a perfectionistic mindset, because there is an ideal, and there are deductions or criticisms for not meeting the ideal.
      This is compounded by having to look at yourselves in formfitting clothing in the mirror or on video (to look for corrections) quite a bit.
      It would be surprising if there are dancers and gymnasts who are not perfectionists.
      I have a feeling, and I may be completely wrong about this, that the aspect of trying to reach perfection or a definite ideal is something that draws people with certain personality types to ballet and gymnastics.
      Ballet especially is so highly regimented that many kids would not be able to, or would not want to, tolerate the exacting rules and constant repetition.
      I'm not sure what to recommend for dancers beyond finding out what other dancers and gymnasts do to cope.
      I believe you've been interviewed on the channel "Ballet with Isabella," (the first British graduate of the Vaganova Academy?).
      She seems to have a podcast with the title "A Dancer's Mindset", so there's probably useful advice there.
      At a minimum, I recommend accepting one's personality as it is. Every personality trait has an upside and a downside. It's how one chooses to use it that makes it either helpful or a hindrance. Every good quality can be pushed too far at which point it becomes a hindrance.
      Acceptance of oneself includes compassion and kindness for oneself, the same as one would show a beloved family member or friend.
      This includes not becoming frustrated or annoyed with having thoughts or displaying behaviours which are hardwired into one's brain.
      Here is a lame example from my own life: I've always been very careful with money and try to make do with spending the least possible amount on everything.
      Although this developed at a time when it was necessary, it's been a few decades since then, but my mindset has never changed. I even carry it over into my management of my in-game coins that I accumulate within a word game app, for example. This is completely unnecessary, but my horror of reckless spending doesn't switch off just because it's not real money. 😂
      I still have feelings of guilt in real life when I purchase something for which I have not made any attempt at comparison-shopping to see if I could get it cheaper elsewhere. That's usually due to time constraints, yet my brain starts thinking of how I could have managed it regardless.
      I've decided to stop judging myself for that, just accepting that's the way my brain thinks, and recognizing that my thrifty habits have overall been very useful for me. Although a mild, nagging feeling of guilt is a bit negative and unwanted, the benefit of that personality trait has far outweighed its drawbacks.
      I hope this makes sense! Wishing you the best!! 🙏😍🩰🧸🦋✨

      Yep! Keep going over things, doubting what I've done.. but sometimes super happy with it too! Just takes a little longer doing things that's all! Sometimes we just need to know/ tell ourselves, 'that will do' in the most positive way.

It’s hard being positive and happy all the time, sometimes we need a few emotions to remind us we’re normal and human. It is how you deal with them that is important and you have certainly seem to have got a few tricks for doing that. ❤

    Thank you for bringing us along on your weekly journey!
    Have you received the YT prize or plaque (?) for reaching 100,000 subscribers yet? 🥳
    I think this is the first time I've seen your older brother in quite a while. I'm so happy he is doing well! You are a very show-bizzy busy family!
    Although, does ballet count as show business because it's an art form?
    All of the Halara outfits fit you well and look very flattering! The dress looks lovely! As though it can be worn casually, but can also be dressed up with some accessories. That's absolutely perfect because most specifically formal evening dresses tend to be rather uncomfortable. I think formal dress is called "smart dress" in British but I'm a little confused about that!
    🙂
    Since you mentioned being interviewed by another TH-camr, your company Birmingham Royal Ballet was included in the channel "Ballet Reign"'s World Ballet Day special YT video which they posted on Nov 11, 2023. BRB is at 08:27 minutes!
    (I've received a YT "community guidelines" reprimand for including a YT link in a comment so I can't do that anymore. Sorry!)
    Ballet Reign is "Dallas' premiere Christian classical ballet company"; the YT channel is hosted by two young girls named Jordan and Eden. They and their videos are very entertaining and educational. It would be so fun if you did a collaboration video!
    I just checked, but Regan is from Houston, not Dallas, but maybe she's aware of this company?
    Regan used to be a Radio City Rockette? I'd love to hear more about that!
    Btw both of you look stunning in your official website photos!
    I'm so glad you're learning to recognize the times in which negative thoughts are more likely to occur, that you're recognizing them for what they are, and that you seem to not be taking them too seriously. That is absolutely wonderful!
    I'm also really glad you have found what works best for you with your stretching and your pre-stretching (?) and things like that. I think it must be extremely helpful for all the ballet students who watch your channel because they see that even professionals are still open-mindedly looking for what works best for them, and are constantly working on improving themselves, which also helps to avoid injury.
    Congratulations on being such a good role model! I'm glad things are going well for you! As always, I marvel at how you manage to get as much done in a 24 hour period (or a 7-day period) as you do!
    Super best wishes to you, your family, Regan, and all your colleagues and staff. 🙏❤️🌸🙂✨

    • @HannahMartinRG
      @HannahMartinRG  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you for these thoughts and insights.
      Yes! the green dress was certainly one of my favourites! It is perfect especially since the weather is now changing.
      Yes!! Regan is a living legend, from Rockette to exquisite ballet dancer her story is inspirational. Very lucky to have her as such a close friend.
      I had no idea about that TH-cam channel, I'll definitely have to check it out! Thank you for directing me to it!

    Supposedly (my teacher told us once before) they’re called lame ducks 19:21 because one leg stays straight the whole time while the other one is bent so it looks like a lame duck hobbling around as the level keeps changing back and forth when you step.
