TAKEAWAYS: IMPOSTER THOUGHTS, HOW TO CHANGE & IMPROVE, CAREER BUILDING STATE OF MIND

We were sitting down for my guitar lesson when Teague starts dropping wisdom! I had to put on the mics and record! I couldn’t edit a minute out of this spontaneous conversation… even the parts where Odie took charge of my guest ;) That also includes the last two minutes where I forgot to turn off the mic and caught some pretty revealing plans and social clumsiness 😆!!

“I think there’s an opportunity to return back to making and playing a song [with a] process that feels very very straight forward. That bypasses nerves. That becomes meditative and life giving again rather than some kind of mental puzzle which tends to separate you from the music.” — Teague Starbuck 

LAUNCH A TEACHING BUSINESS TO ACCOMPANY YOUR PERFORMANCE INCOME 

If you are going to launch a business in an industry as competitive as music, you’d best bring something new to the plate! Here’s an approach to teaching/learning that’s a welcome tonic in a sometimes dry field. The academia of guitar joins with the magic we all want from music when Teague talks about his curriculum and vision for his new school, Lotus Guitar. WE ALSO spend the first few minutes talking about Seth Godin and touching on Imposter Syndrome… an ongoing conversation here at The Bones.

Teague is a guitar teacher at DMI
