Your first grammy award
By: Mike Moales
Your vision gives you direction
John Lennon?s classic line, ?Life is what happens while you?re making other plans,? is true for everything except your career in music. In the music business, you don?t have a life unless you?ve made specific plans. The artists who survive are those artists who knew where they wanted and figured out how to get it. Making plans doesn?t eliminate every bump along the way, but it makes the bumps easier to handle when you hit them. There will still be plenty of unexpected twists and turns to add to the excitement. Having a plan gives you a direction to head for and a way to get back on course when you head towards a dead end.
