I got a notification from Google Photos about my picture being taken 8 years ago, it dates back to 22nd March 2014.
I was a novice with guitar, but still somehow managed to clear auditions and play for the band
I owned an acoustic guitar back then, but in order to play on stage I needed an electric guitar
At that time, a friend of mine has a shop for musical instruments and lent me a new red guitar
He said, "Deepak Bhai, awesome news about you performing on stage. Take this new red guitar it arrived just a day back, it is user-friendly and you can get adjusted with this in 2 days".
There is a vast difference between acoustic and electric guitar, in terms of strings, way of strumming, etc. In short electric guitar is very sensitive and trickier to play
He gave me the new red guitar for 8 days (so that I get adjusted to it) without a security deposit and any kind of rent.
I was in engineering college back then, and renting a guitar for a day used to cost anywhere between 500-1000 INR/ day. I couldn't have afforded it back then.
Why am I telling this?
Many of us get worried/ overthink about the mediums, things, or gadgets we don't own.
For example, someone about to start a YouTube channel is thinking about owning a camera/ iPhone.
Just make a move, have a positive attitude towards life, accept opportunities with open arms and the universe will get things arranged for you.
The world is a happy place, just ask and people are there to help you out. Have a CAN DO attitude and believe in yourself.
P.S.: Currently I own an electric guitar, sound processor, and amplifier and have a dedicated space with the system in place. The pic is not clear, as I didn't have a good camera back then.
