I haven’t battled in 10 years.
And last night my ADHD did something embarrassing.
I went to a dance battle..
After I paid for entry, the guy told me to sign my name on the line. But I didn’t even look at what I was signing.
I thought I put my name on the spectator list.
But it was actually the battlers list.
And when they called my name for prelims, I was so confused.
“Is it a different Paris?”
“There has to be a mistake..”
But it was me. My “higher self” signed that list.
In this moment I had a choice to decline.. or to say yes.
To do something I “say” I’ll try again for years.
So I said yes – even though I had no intention of battling. And it went terrible.
I got a song out of my comfort zone.
I wasn’t present with my round.
I was nervous and anxious.
But I’m glad I said yes. Because I feel uncomfortable.
And this is where I grow.
