FMM119 - The Enemy of Your Creativity

Unless you’ve spent years with your head in the clouds, you’ll know life is full of ups and downs…

And as a music producer, you’ll understand this more than most.

Whilst being creative has the tremendous power to light us up, the harsh truth is that it can also bring about negative thoughts and feelings, negative environments, and negative people.

And if not dealt with properly, it can have a detrimental impact on your life, your music, and can even ruin your chances of ever achieving your goals.

So in this week’s podcast I’m tackling the big question… how much impact is this often hidden negativity having on your life and what can you do about it?

Because if you fail to turn it around, dial it down or distance yourself from it, you’ll scupper the best chance you have of living a happy and successful life as a music producer.

These are big questions that require big answers, so let’s get focused and dive in.

Key takeaways

Don’t attach your goals to your happiness – it is inevitable for us to fail at times.

You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.

Ask yourself: if you could never tell a single person about your achievements, would you still pursue them?
