Making music is not dangerous. 

Avoid being drawn into the illusion of lack. You may feel you don't have enough—whether it's confidence, knowledge, skill set, money, gear, time, or equipment. But the voice inside you, echoing these doubts, is simply trying to keep you safe. It perceives your music-making as risky, often because you haven't ventured far into it.

My album reflects my journey. 

I am scared; I feel it in my body. However, I've faced this fear many times before, countering every doubt with my experience. I see it for what it truly is—an inner creative force, an artist within me, a part that dances with joy. Simultaneously, there's an internal parent telling me to be quiet, to stop talking, to be less ME, to grow up, and to pursue a "real" job.

NO THANK YOU.

Here is what I tell myself: 

1. Start from where you currently stand, with the resources you possess. You can achieve more than you imagine with what you have. Can you play an instrument or use your voice? Can you sing? Learn, grow, and take control of your life—because you have all you need.

2. Seek guidance. You're listening to me, someone who has positioned themselves as a guide, mentor, support, and authority figure. Authentic Songwriting begins this Friday, and I invite you to join. My course commences in October, and you're welcome to be a part of it. Alternatively, seek a mentor, ask a friend, or find a community (I even offer a free one).

3. Take a chance on yourself. The return on investment for creative risks is boundless; you can never accrue creative debt or a creative deficit. The more you create, the more you comprehend the intricacies of it all. Read books on the subject, start an Instagram account dedicated solely to your songwriting, and follow inspiring accounts. Begin a YouTube channel and start sharing your thoughts. 

You are the most secure investment you'll ever make, and once you realise that, everything will change.

Remember, your art is not dangerous. Fear is a normal companion on the journey to exploring new realms and landscapes of creativity.
