There is so much to consider when climbing the mountain of “making it” or of being a successful creative. We no longer live in a world where it’s enough to simply be talented, to be a great singer, or guitar player, or whatever you did. It feels like maybe there was a time you could lock yourself up in your room, away from the rest of the world and magically someone would come find you and make you a star, but the more I think about it, the more I feel like that never happened.
