Alright, let's tackle the question of all questions:

Why are you making this record? What's the point of all that?

Have you ever really thought about your goals, what you're actually trying to achieve, when you're going to achieve it and what it will take to achieve it?

If the answer is "no", then this episode is definitely for you. And to be honest, most of us have not put enough thought, planning, strategy and effort into coming up with good goals and actually going after them. Let's face it: We, as musicians and creatives in general, are notorious for being dreamers, or being delusional, or being lazy, or wanting everything but not doing nearly enough to actually achieve it.

And I'm not just talking fame, money, hit records, or becoming a superstar. Whether you want a #1 single, play your first show, release your first record, change the world through the message you put out, express your feelings to people who care, or impress your friends - You'll only achieve whatever you set out to achieve, if you know exactly what you're actually going for and then act on it.

Listen now, as we share a proven goal setting framework along with real-life examples and then ask yourself these questions:

What's the point of making that record? Will you achieve, what you're trying to achieve? When? How? What will it take? Why are you putting so much effort, time and money into this? Or maybe, if you feel like you're not putting enough into it: Should you? Do you have to?

Here's to you and your music goals! You got this!
