Meet your inner saboteur.
It’s what Steven Pressfield calls your Resistance. It’s that inner voice that says, “You’re not ready” or “You can do that tomorrow” or “Who do you think you are?”
It’s self-sabotage. The fear, arrogance, self-doubt, and procrastination. It’s the negative self-messaging that undermines your efforts.
Here’s the truth: In order to move ahead in your music career, you must confront and overcome your Resistance.
There’s no avoiding the need to deal head-on with the hero’s journey of your music career—to feel the fear and move forward into it.
The good news is there’s help.
In the book I’ll be your guide, your mentor on the journey.
You’ll get real-world examples from my coaching practice and years of running career and entrepreneurship centers at Manhattan School of Music, Indiana University, and New England Conservatory.
The third edition of Beyond Talent delivers the missing piece musicians like you have needed—the answers for how to take your career to the next level.
