Mind The Music Episode 031 - 3 mindset shifts for greater wellness in dance music
What I know to be true is that focusing on your wellness and mental well-being as well as knowing exactly what to do to finish your tracks and DJ mixtapes and how to get it in the ears of the right people helps you to make that glimpse of the life you could have in dance music a reality.
You can have all the strategies you want for time management, productivity, your creative process, networking, social media, and so on, but if you cannot back it with the strong, rock solid belief that it’s going to work for you, then those strategies will fail eventually. They are not going to be sustainable longer term.
It’s wellness you need to focus on to make the strategies for time management & productivity, marketing & promoting your music, networking, … and the creative processes work so that you can land the desired releases and DJ gigs! And the way you put the focus on wellness is by learning the mindset, vision and actions you need to cultivate it!
“And 80% of your success as a DJ/producer comes from your mindset. ”
It all begins with awareness around what you think and feel about your chances of getting booked or released and shifting that helps you to get different, better results - which is to actually achieve that releases and get more DJ gigs booked!
Inside this episode, you’ll learn #3 major mindset shifts you can make that will fast-track your success in dance music as a DJ/Producer.
#1 - FOMO, such a huge mental block that keeps DJ/producers from landing DJ gigs or releases and makes you feel like you’re constantly playing catchup, doing all the things you THINK you should do and now what you actually want to do on your own terms - a strategy that is not sustainable and that leads to overwhelm.
#2 - Waiting for the perfect time or the ideal conditions is not going to enable you to finish your tracks or DJ sets faster or more easily, in fact, it’s actually keeping you from doing just that and as a result, you’re struggling even more to get ahead, get it in the ears of the right people so that you can get released or booked for more DJ gigs - the process becomes stressful instead of exciting and fun.
#3 - Giving money too much power keeps you from investing in yourself - better support, better gear, more knowledge and upgraded skills, and keeps you small.
I’m also sharing how these mindset blocks keep you from getting releases or DJ gigs and what to do about that.
