Recently I've decided to take my own advice and start posting videos on YouTube of me singing because being a singer is something I have always dreamed of. And guess what, it makes me feel good. It gives me hope that maybe one day someone will see these videos. It's a way more productive than what I was doing before which was sitting at home wishing that a music producer would magically appear and make me a number one song.

Try and meet people who are living your dream, visit museums and research centres, read books and watch documentaries.
Nothing will ever happen to you if you do nothing.
