being fascinated by the marriage of art and business is nothing to be ashamed of...on the contrary, learning to channel creative energy into innovative business deals is something which excites me and is something i should be proud of, if i really want to establish myself as an artist..
so that's exactly what i am doing: learning the basics of the music business..
there's no point in waiting or hoping for that big break, unless i take matters in my own hands, by doing it myself.
over time, i have gathered bits and pieces of information, but the puzzle never really was complete...
well, i did some basic research on some topics of the music business and suddenly i already have a much clearer picture...
i always had trouble defining basic but very important things like goals, both short and long term, strategies and tactics...
what i really lacked was some clear vision in my mind of how to reach goals i didn't even had!...the mental picture or vision is slowly emerging in my mind...and a clear vision leads to a mission and gives this mission the necessary energy to forge forward in faith.
the mission implements my vision and provides a vehicle to move toward my goals...
i would go further and state that my ambition to be a professional musician started long ago with a dream...one big dream that would go on and on...this dream created in me a burning desire...and i think it is this desire that is the starting point of my journey toward reaching my goals...a desire is something completely different than a wish...i could wish for that big break all i want, unless i have this burning desire to actually take action, nothing will happen...
i realise that i have reached the village from where i will start my climb to the mount everest base camp..and that the journey to the top will be long, hard and full of obstacles...
