Is music still a hobby to you?

In my last post on saving yourself some money by getting OUT the game, we call the music business, I challenged you to ask yourself whether music is a hobby or a business to you. So here it is:

If you are not willing to invest time in YOU: why should anybody else! Music is still a hobby to you.

If you are not willing to invest money in YOU: why should anybody else! Music is still a hobby to you.

If you are not willing to give something up to get what you want: why should anybody else! Music is still a hobby to you.

If you are not willing to dedicate yourself fully to YOUR goals, your dreams, your aspirations, your CAREERRRRRRRRRR, the things you SAY you want, why should anybody else! Music is still a hobby to you.

If you just want to play music for fun, write songs for fun, music is a hobby to you!

If you don't want to put in the time it takes, music is a hobby to you!

If you don't want to learn how to perfect your craft, music is a hobby to you!

If you don't want to get paid to do what you love to do, music is a hobby to you!

If you got a lot of excuses related to your career, your business, and your music, music is a hobby to you!

If you don't want to learn the business side of the music business, music is a hobby to you.

If you only work on your music every now and then, music is a hobby to you.

If you don't want to network, build relationships, make moves, brand and promote yourself, music is a hobby to you.

If all you want to do is create and never handle any business, music is a hobby to you.

If you quit because you got rejected, got a bad critique from someone, didn't hear back from someone, etc, music is a hobby to you.

For all those who find themselves answering most of those statements like, yep, that's me, then I'd suggest you save yourself some time and money, and get out the billion dollar music industry. Find your true passion and make money doing what you really love to do because music ain't it.
