Why is giving up so hard?
I had always wanted to work with aspiring artists. I thought my work with LF would propel me to that. I generally “gave up” all hope of working in the music industry, and I was generally OK with that. I moved on. Then JK happened. Some would say you need to pursue your dreams. Mine have always just “happened”. Unfortunately, my “happenings” have been fewer and farther between, perhaps non-existent lately. And in the midst of that, I’m not giving up.
Does one have a “dream” to be the warranty manger for a new home builder? Ok, that just “happened”. But, it’s certainly far from a dream job.
I have this music/audio gear in my basement. Just sitting there. It has some, but not a lot of actual value. So, it seems more valuable to keep than to purge. But, if I “gave up”, I would purge and but a new tool or something. If I really wanted to do audio/music, would I not be pursuing that? Why, as a person with some success in that arena does it seem difficult to pursue?
Have gear. Will record/produce for free?
Do I need to put up a banner like that to pursue that?
And if so, why do I spend time researching a new nail gun? Is it that or a new audio interface?
