It's a new year, and you probably have goals as a musician, but are you underestimating the time and intensity you need to invest in order to make real progress?

A little practice is better than none, right? This is an approach to keep you running in place. If you want to really grow as a musician in 2025, it's time to stop dabbling and time to get serious! In this episode, we talk about why and how.
