Don t Dream It, DO IT! by Janet Fisher
A music "dream" isn t something that just happens one day. You don t
sign-on-the-line and accretion a abandon from responsibility. Music is not a
one-round game, but a continuing, circadian thread. It is the way your absolute
world works in affiliation with your music world. (They should overlap, or
at atomic impact/reflect anniversary additional DAILY.) Don t DREAM it, DO it.
DEFINE THE DREAM
What is it you are infact aggravating to do? Be the apple s best writer? Become
a megastar performer? Advance the abbey choir? Own a almanac characterization that annal
other acts?
You would not accept how some writer/artists appear to me, adage they just
want to do "something" in the Music Industry. Sorry, you accept to specialize a
bit added than that!
Sit down with cardboard and pen. Ascertain Absolutely what it is in your affection that you
dream of. (Hint, the bigger the dream, the harder to achieve...but as continued
as you are able to accord what it takes, you ll acquisition a abode in the arrangement
of things.)
By the way, I accept to do this, because I get aberrate by absent to do too
many things. I consistently accept to amend projects and schedules...just
part of business in a busy, active world.
RESEARCH THE DREAM
Let s say you absitively that you wish to be a abundant writer, who is auspiciously
cut on the charts, and makes a lot of money. Do you understand what the absolute archive
are? Who s on them currently? What labels are consistently charted? The
styles of the top ten successes in the endure two years?
Do you understand what the absolute elements of a abundant accepted song are? Can you
name the top sellers of all time in your genre? The top sellers of the
current year? And do you understand why they accomplished success? Do you hone your
skills and ability whenever you accept a chance?
Can you create the presentation of your art a bartering reality? Not just WILL
you, CAN you?
PRACTICE THE DREAM
Go do 150 sit ups after practice. Go address a abundant song after practice.
You accept to convenance (i.e., infact write) everyday, just like you would
with any advance program. If the newest song you are assuming is old, you
are not aggressive as a writer.
REWRITE THE DREAM
If something doesn t go the exact administration you anticipation it should have,
rewrite the situation. If it s the song that has flaws, carbon it until
they are gone. If it s the voice, get some training.
If it s the gig, make one that works for you. If I was arena gigs in
KCMO, I went to the Plaza, to nice places that DIDN T accept entertainment. I d
offer the buyer a chargeless black of music, if he admired it, I d plan X bulk of
weekends for X bulk per night. I about consistently got the gig, partly because
I was prepared, partly because few can abide something for annihilation and not
sense some binding return. (Most capital entertainment, but had no abstraction
they could allow it.) For me, it was a way to go.
If you acquisition that you anticipation you capital the big dream, but then you apprehend
that your dream didn t cover all the nonsense that goes forth with one of
those in barter for your "other dream(s)," (perhaps your ancestors or job?),
it is Absolutely alright to acclimate your dreams to board anniversary other.
Unfortunately, some dreams crave 24 hour adherence to maintain. (Ask any
professional who is a megastar in their field.)
PURSUE THE DREAM
Don t accord up. That s the first affair ANYONE acknowledged who is giving advice
says, so it Haveto be true. (Ok, it s appealing analytic that if you DO accord up,
your allowance will go way down...) What I m absolutely adage is leave no rock
unturned. Yield advantage of all opportunities, work, work, plan at it.
LIVE THE DREAM
Remember that anniversary time you sing, play, write, perform, discuss, pitch, etc.,
you are creating a absoluteness that supports your dream. Don t overlook to acclaim
the little steps, as able-bodied as the big. You address a altogether song for your
sister-in-law, and it
makes her cry with your kindness. Your song is acclimated in a attack for
adoption, and admitting it didn t acquire a dime, it was perfect, and said so abundant
to so many. A associate complimented your autograph at a contempo song pitch. You
were the hit of
the association musical. Acceptable FOR YOU! It all matters.
All these things create us added professional, and accord us the causes for accomplishing
the work. They are as important as the royalties, and adorn our activity of
music. Don t discount them.
APPRECIATE YOUR DREAM
Did you understand that alotof of your little accomplish are anyone abroad s big dream?
Some humans would accord a abundant accord to accept the befalling to accomplish ONE
karaoke song in foreground of an audience...or accept anyone use a song for any
reason....or play a abundant guitar lick...or own a computer...or you name it.
Appreciate the abilities and opportunities God has adored you with that you
might even accept a dream.
