Something to reflect on:

Anyone can learn to play a musical instrument, there is nothing stopping you from doing so, just the BS reasoning that you tell yourself why you can’t. Don’t come to your death and have regrets, listen to that inner voice and go for it. You may never reach the heights of being in a #1 band but if you enjoy it, why let society stop you, start now and hit that next level of music in your life.

About the Author
I’m a podcaster who interviews great examples of people to discuss and highlight the methods, hacks, tips and procedures you can use in your own life to help you develop and better your life. I would definitely not consider myself an expert, so to improve, I ask them and action it in my own life! My personal journey has been marked by awkwardness and awesomeness, OCD and ‘OMG’. I have suffered with depression, shyness, unhappiness and lack of focus and motivation so I know what’s it like to feel lost and hopeless. Back then, I wished I had a podcast to listen to and find actual fixes and concrete action steps and not just unobtainable suggestions and promotion of their products but couldn’t find it … so I made my own!
