Attitude!
Attitude! – Having the wrong kind. The minute you display cockiness, people pick up on it and are less willing to help you. If you are just starting out on your music career you are going to need all the help you can get – trust me.
Negativity – A state of mind that others can pick up on. If you are lacking in constructiveness, helpfulness, optimism, cooperativeness, along with a tendency towards being unpleasant, disagreeable, gloomy or pessimistic then you are clearly suffering from a negative viewpoint – not good.
Repulsion – totally the wrong effect! Ever met a ‘not nice’ person or seen them on your TV? – What is it that puts you off? What is it that makes you conclude they are “not nice”? It’s often very negative characteristics in the person’s behaviour or body language. This can also be displayed by a rude, arrogant or insensitive attitude.
To put it simply, when you have positive thoughts of yourself and others, you draw people toward you, but when you have the wrong attitude or negative thoughts about yourself and others, you tend to repel others.
To make real money from your music you need to keep those positive thoughts in mind especially when you face rejection or some kind of setback.
This positive attitude will help you to have STICKABILITY! It’s fair to say most people who have succeeded in music and made real money from their music have all faced rejection at some time during their journey to success.
Next time…Can you profit from your music without having the X factor?
