Do you have a "back-up plan" if pursuing music doesn't work out? Are you more focused on building your safety net than actually developing your music career?
So many Independent Artists fall into the trap of under-developing their skills and music projects, because they have been told and they believe, they need to have a "real job" in case they don't "make it".
Therefore, Plan A (Pursing a Music Career) takes a backseat to Plan B (The Real Job), and as a result, the music career never happens.
Where do you fall on that spectrum? How do you balance life with the pursuit of a music career?
We're ready to answer some of those questions.
