You will never be happy

Bit of a bleak one to start the week off with haha. BUT bear with me as it isn't what you think... I'm not just here bringing your day down telling you you won't be happy, promise. I see this a lot, where artists say things like... "If I can just get to the next stage" "If I can just get more streams" "If I can just get more followers" The truth is, no matter how many goals you achieve, it will never be enough. You’ll hit your a goal and the high will wear off faster than you thought it would, leaving you feeling hollow. Your brain will then fixate on the next milestone whilst you’re comparing yourself to others, feeling like you’re STILL not good enough. This relentless pursuit is a trap, and if you don’t learn to enjoy the journey, you’ll spend your entire life chasing a satisfaction that will never come. Happiness won’t be found in getting more streams, more views or more followers. It’s in loving the process, or it’s nowhere at all. This week I want you to take this in and enjoy what you're doing TODAY and not thinking that happiness is rooted in the achievements of the future. The enjoyment is creating that new song. It's in the message from someone saying your song has changed their life. It's the pride you feel when you learn a new thing on guitar. It isn't in the followers, the streams or the metrics. Enjoy. The. Journey. Also letting you know my biggest offer of the year ends in a few days. This is what you get... - A HUGE 50% off the Academy (I kinda hate to do this because it really devalues what is thousands of dollars of value) And all of these bonuses engineered to save you time (yes all of them!) - The Release Checklist 2.0 (the checklist we use with our label clients) - 100 Social Media Content Hooks (that we use every day to generate millions of views in my agency) - The Music Press Database - The Radio Database - The A&R Database - The Press Release Template - The Communication Templates (how to talk to fans on release day etc) - The Recording Agreement Template - The Performance Agreement Template - The Sync Licensing Agreement Template - The Music Entrepreneur Calendar (I get all of our clients on this, sounds unfun but it's the best thing you'll do for your career!) Now I could be one of those people that's like "this is valued at 5 MILLION DOLLARS AND YOU CAN GET IT TODAY FOR $99.50" But I'm not going to do that 😎 You can see the amount of value for yourself. So the next question is.... "Damian, how do I get this?"
