What's the one thing – the most important thing – that you can do today that would move your career forward?
Pick up the phone and make that scary call? Connect with a mentor or old friend? Turn off the computer and phone and spend some serious time finishing a piece of important unfinished business? Get organized so tomorrow and every other day hereafter is more productive. Maybe you just need to stop running in circles and think, read or even catch up on sleep.
Need inspiration? It's everywhere. Just stop for a minute and think or look around the room.
Stop right now and write down the most important thing you could be doing right now. If you think it will help, make it public by posting it in the comment section below. Then you'll have a few thousand people routing for you.

The single most important thing in regards to your music itself is to constantly write and record your songs until they reach a level where they can compete with anyone’s material.
The single most important thing in regards to your music business is to focus on your efforts to monetize yourself as an artist so you can survive on your music. Less is best. Don’t spread yourself too thin. Maintain a presence on MySpace, Twitter and your artist website for fan communication and direct to fan promotion and sales activities, on iTunes and Amazon to sell your music and on MPTrax so that your fans can book you. Stay focused on these efforts and work smarter not harder.

Perfect. Thanks Bruce!
Like he said…STOP.
Just stop for a minute..you know 60 seconds.
Take a moment, you know at least 60 seconds and think about how you think about yourself…and always remember….
YOU CAN DO IT
IF YOU DON’T BELIEVE YOUR OWN VOICE
JUST ASK THOSE WHO KNOW AND LOVE YOU
TAKE ONE STEP AT A TIME
GAIN THE CONFIDENCE
ESTABLISH YOUR OWN VOICE
RECEIVE THE REWARD
REPEAT WHEN NECESSARY
IF ARE DEAF, DUMB AND BLIND TO HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT YOURSELF AND WHAT YOUR DOING…YOU’RE MOST LIKELY DOING SOMETHING FOR SOMEONE ELSE….NO HARM IN GENERAL…BUT GET A FOCUS ON WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND WHY….IT CAN’T HURT…AND EVEN IF IT DOES…IT’S GOOD FOR YOU…IT WON’T KILL…YOU KNOW WHAT DOESN’T KILL YOU MAKES YOU STRONGER..OR AT LEAST YOU’LL AVOID IT THE NEXT TIME….CLICHE ASIDE….IT’S TRUE…MAKE THE CALL, FINISH THE SONG, GET SOME SLEEP.
