Description

The fear of missing out (FOMO) comes in 2 forms for a musician.  The first is social and live events that you're not able to do because of rehearsal and performance.  The other is not using all the skills you practiced because there isn't enough time to achieve a professional goal on all of them.  Saying I CAN do this, I'm good at this, and even to a point that I LIKE doing this aren't always good reasons for not putting it aside.  This episode tries to address this 2nd version of FOMO, to encourage you that it's okay to not do everything so that you can go all-in on your well-rounded life as a musician!


Musicianship Mastery is formerly known as The Musician Toolkit.
