Get Your F#$king Excuses Out Of My Face! - Let's win together!

As an artist, you have a choice every day: make progress or make excuses. The truth is, no matter how valid your reasons may seem, excuses won’t bring you success, they won’t fund your projects, and they definitely won’t pay your bills. It’s easy to say, I don’t have enough time, I don’t have the right connections, or the industry is too tough. But while you’re busy explaining why you can’t succeed, someone else is out there making it happen. The difference between artists who thrive and those who struggle isn’t just talent—it’s discipline, consistency, and a refusal to make excuses.

Taking full accountability for your success is the most powerful move you can make. No one is responsible for your career but you. The industry won’t magically notice you, and opportunities won’t just land in your lap. You have to show up, put in the work, and push through obstacles—even when things aren’t ideal. Instead of looking for reasons why something isn’t possible, start looking for ways to make it happen. Every excuse is a missed chance to grow, create, and move forward. The artists who succeed are the ones who find solutions instead of reasons to stop.

So how do you break free from excuses and take control? First, commit to daily action—whether it’s creating, promoting, or learning, do something every day that moves you forward. Second, shift your mindset from victim to problem-solver—when faced with a challenge, don’t ask why me?—ask how do I fix this? Third, surround yourself with doers, not complainers—energy is contagious, and being around driven people will push you to level up. Excuses don’t build careers, create masterpieces, or put money in your pocket—only action does. It’s time to get to work!
