8 WAYS TO BE A BETTER MUSICIAN

Been the best does not happen by chance. it takes real effort by applying the points below:

1.       Success is not automatic: in other words there are no short cut to success. Waking up one morning and thinking you could experience instant success is simply not the way out. Indeed, you need to cultivate these qualities: patience, persistence and commitment.

2.       Pass a clear message: many musicians think coming up with a bunch of meaningless lyrics is the best way to go about it. They focus on the beats/rhythm to drive fans crazy. If you really want to excel you have to speak to the heart of your fans.

3.       Work hard on promoting your music: talent is simply not enough if you really want to be great. Do something about publicizing yourself and your song.

4.       Always enjoy your music: your music should serve as a source of inspiration to you. It should be able to lift your spirit anytime you play them. Your worries and anxieties should fade away the moment you get into the mood of your music.

5.       Try to stand out from the crowd: find the things you do differently and build on them. Great musicians have a unique way of doing things, that is why people are attracted to them.

6.       Find your role model and imitate him/her: learn from others. Don’t be content with just your own thing. There is always someone out there that does it better in some way.

7.       Keep a sense of humour: when all is not going well as planned, do not break down in sorrow but always find a way to cheer yourself up.

8.       Don’t listen to everyone: there is a time to listen to criticism or advice, and there is a time to ignore it. Listen to the advice of experts in the same industry and apply such with wisdom.
