SINGING LESSONS:

  1. It takes finding the audience. Who’s going to hear you sing. 
  2. If you have raw talent you are capable of many amazing things. It’s just then about strategy from there on out. 
  3. Show that you’re constantly out there doing what people would want to hire you for.  
  4. It’s about the tiny steps. 
  5. You have to allow yourself failure before you can get better. 
  6. Everyone has a different path. 
  7. You don’t get to this level where you get to coast. Once you’ve made it then it becomes about staying in the game.
