Please do not fall prey to the idea that any activity that does not measurably advance your career is somehow necessarily harming it. You have only this one beautiful life; do not avoid living it for fear that your total productive output might be less than the theoretical max.

I probably don’t make this point enough on the podcast: Allowing your life to be steered by fear is never good.
I’ve never heard this exact point made in this way. “Fear that your total productive output might be less than the theoretical max” is really well said.
This isn’t a dress rehearsal. We only get to live life once.
I am a professional musician who has performed in over 35 countries around the world. I am the creator of The Entrepreneurial Musician, a consulting service, podcast and blog preparing today’s musician for tomorrow’s reality. I am also the owner of Pedal Note Media, a digital media company. And I’ve seen the band Phish 205 times. No, really.
