So Close So Many Times.
Submitted by: Linda Varg
SwedenMultiplatinum singer and songwriter.
My name is Linda Varg and I’m a Swedish Pop artist and songwriter.
I had been so close to leveling up in my career so many times but I always got stuck in the same way, every time an opportunity would show up. Ever since I started writing music in 2006, I had heard these words from people in the music industry:
“You have awesome songs and the full package as an artist but you need that three minute song that will change your life.”
“You don’t have enough followers or listeners.”
“You’ll be too old soon.”
“It’s impossible to get any new songs on the radio.”
“There are already too many pop artists.”
Even after I was one of the finalists on Swedish Idol 2010 they kept saying those same things. I heard it so many times for so many years. What I didn’t know then was that all those words got stuck in my subconscious mind and created paradigms that kept me from reaching my goals.
I tried and tried but nothing ever happened until 2019 when I started studying The Secret and the law of attraction. I started to understand that it had nothing to do with the people around me. It had to do with how I saw myself as not being worthy of success and not good enough. It was really challenging the whole first year of studying, something inside of me didn’t want me to succeed. My body was so stressed and I got sick all the time but I didn’t give up. I really wanted to change my life and I knew that there was more in me. All my talent and desire couldn’t just be for nothing.
I started to visualize my goals, seeing myself surrounded by loving, caring, and supportive people. People that are awesome at what they do and who want me to succeed. I visualized myself working with a team of women and I could see us laughing together doing high-fives because of all the success we had accomplished together. Now I’m seeing myself living in the US, touring the world with a huge crew, and performing at big arenas. This, to me, is really thinking large and I had no idea how to get there.
Then things started to happen about a year ago when all of a sudden I met a female manager who wanted to work with me and really believes in me. She lives in Italy but she’s active all over the globe.
Shortly after that, I stumbled across a woman who’s in the business of making music videos, and she’s really good at it! As of today, she’s filmed three beautiful videos for my songs.
I also met two women photographers, on two different occasions, who are now taking my press photos and pictures for my cover art. And just two weeks ago, me and my manager signed a deal with a PR company in the UK, and guess what? Also a woman!
I really want you to understand that I don’t have anything against working with guys. I’ve worked with and still am working with guys from time to time. But I thought it would be fun to try and work with a team of women so that’s what I had visualized. Isn’t marvelous how the Universe delivers what you picture in your mind?
I’m living my dream life, working on new songs, and manifesting my goals one at a time. By the way, did I mention that I quit my job as a kindergarden teacher to be able to put all my energy and love into creating music and building my career? I also moved to an apartment twice the size of the one before. I would never have done something like that before but I’m not the same person anymore. I trust and believe that it will all work out fine!
Thank you so very much for all that you share with and teach us, Rhonda.
Love
Linda Varg
