Every year, thousands of artists like you are still struggling to turn their music craft into a cash cow despite being surrounded by huge opportunities.
To save yourself from the rat race of non-profitable artists, you need to pay close attention to this article.
All right, let’s get into the 4 reasons why you are still struggling to break through this industreet.
1. Freebies
Hunting for freebies frequently won’t make you grow or succeed until you stop that mentality.
As an artist, you have to take it upon yourself to start paying for products or services that will transform your music career positively.
Also, you have to stop the habit of telling experts to give their products or services to you for free. That’s wrong na.
“Please, just hear me out” or “I will never forget you when I blow” can never and will never put a day’s food on a producer’s or anyone’s table.
If you want to succeed in this industreet, you have to cultivate the good habit of paying for others’ services or products.
Mind you, doing so comes with its magic as you will probably get those transforming results.
2. Laziness
This is another virus that’s stopping you from experiencing the sunlight of success.
Speaking of this, @Sir_Michaelo, an entrepreneur amazingly tweeted this:
“Literally, every problem you have is an ignorance problem. Someone has published the answer to your problem in a book, on a blog, in a YouTube video, in a master class, or somewhere. But you don’t like to learn, you’d rather be entertained.”
Getting ahead in this industry requires you to continuously update and upgrade your knowledge of the music business.

And you can achieve this through different, music-related means: reading books, listening to podcasts, watching YouTube videos, attending master classes, and paying for physical or online courses.
See, if you want to succeed in this crowded industreet, you have to shake off laziness and be up and doing.
3. Procrastination/Excuses
See, procrastination is ‘bae’ until it hijacks the treasure you should have acquired.
I am always of the opinion that procrastination is the twin brother of indiscipline.
If you don’t discipline yourself to do the necessary things you are supposed to do on time, your music career is bound to suffer the consequences.
If your ultimate goal is to succeed in this music industry, you have to gun down procrastination.
Though this is not easy to do, you just have to do it if you want to move from where you are to where you ought to be.
Also, I urge you to write down that song ideas in your head immediately they spring up instead of postponing it till another day, as the ideas may evaporate and never return.
“I don’t have money” shouldn’t be your sweet excuse for letting opportunities pass you by.
Go and learn a digital skill to get the money instead of comforting yourself with that killing virus.
4. Trial And Error
Employing trial and error instead of learning from the mistakes of other successful artists before you will only keep you in the boat of struggles.
Trying to figure things out yourself is not a problem, but it’s a waste of time, energy and resources when you can easily learn from those who have achieved what you want.
Finally, I want you to know that you are the architect of your music career.
