How many hours a day do you practice your craft? How many years of your life have you devoted to developing your music? Do you ever find yourself thinking “I should practice more…?” 

It is said that practice makes perfect and that there is no gain without pain. Still, there are plenty of examples of artists who slave away and never live up to their potential and others who seem to flourish despite the lack of any conventional work ethic.  The difference lies in how much purpose is behind the practice and how much passion is behind the action. Couple these concepts with a broader definition of what constitutes effective artistic practice and you might be able to replace the “I should practice more” with conscious, creative, living practices that take you where you want to go musically, artistically, and personally. 

So don’t just do something, sit there…and listen in as The Soul of Songwriting podcast takes on a sacred cow and explores how to train without strain.
