Not trying to kick myself through the mud here, but I spent the better half of the last decade in university with a blanket of time to work on improving my craft, and the only thing I did was write songs over other peoples hard work and dedication.
After I fell out with my session players, I had to start from the mud again and pick up guitar, and it’s probably the most discouraging feeling I’ve ever gone through in my life, because I don’t see the progress I’m making. All I see is the time I could’ve spent becoming self sufficient instead of pissing my money away on players I believed in.
The only thing I see ahead of me is years of practice that will lead me into my 30s, and that’s pretty scary to think about because there’s nothing I want to do more than express how I’m feeling with the proficiency on my instrument that I have with the lyrics and vocals i got right now.
Anyways, I’m just reaching out here to see if any of you fellow musicians could knock some sense into me and tell me the best way to move forward. At a cross roads with this hobby.
Thank you
