I wrote a blog post today for anyone who has a lifelong passion they’d love to have made a living from but never could
For me it’s music but this blog post is relevant for any passion really
Although me and the various bands I formed over the years
all had some success we never really managed to hit the high spot
Lots of reasons but no excuses - the truth is that I love playing the guitar, writing songs and messing about with recording and producing for its own sake
Its the same with photography
All I ever really wanted was to find a way to earn my living that didn’t take up almost all of my time
It took a long time and in some ways I wish I’d been born later - so I could have taken advantage of the digital world sooner
But that’s
life
Its here now and as I say in the blog, it’s opened up huge possibilities for all of us to spend more time doing what we really want to do
Not what we think we have to
Anyway I’m off to Glasgow to see a
friend’s band - A WHO tribute band of all things - which is very relevant to the blog post
Hope you find it though provoking
Enjoy
Cheers!
