How about changing your Starving Musician status to Flourishing Musician? Writing a plan of action will enable you to achieve your goals and change your label from starving musician to flourishing musician.
Decisions that you make to change your starving musician status on a daily basis are great but for the long term plans of action that you want to achieve, it’s a very good practice to sit down and work it out first – then charge through the steps to attain your goals.
The first thing to include in your ‘change from being a starving musician’ plan is to decide what you should call yourself and/or your band. Staying with a plain old ‘John Doe’ type of name may keep you in the starving musician status, finding a name that will be remembered is better.
To stay a starving musician, just pick one name that you like and go with it. To get into the big time, make yourself a list of possibilities. Why? A bright idea may or may not communicate to the audience that you are attempting to reach. Making a list of possibilities, then going out to ask the type of person that you want as an audience which name is liked the most is what will get the results and change the starving musician status.
Don’t just ask family and friends. You know the type of music you play and the audience that listens to your type of music. Ask that crowd as it is the one that is going to become fans and purchase your releases thus taking you from starving to thriving musician.
The above should be included in your "change the starving musician status to thriving musician" plan for success. Stay tuned for more tips on writing your plan of action.

Decisions, Decisions...
Before you set out to create the press kit for you and your band, the very first thing to do after you decide that you are going to make your music your work, is to create a plan of action.
It helps to dream big and with that huge dream, state your overall purpose that you have for creating music.
A statement such as "Creating Music in Order to Make money" is not going to get you very far.
A statement such as "Creating Music That Makes People Feel Happy" or "Creating Music That Inspires Others to Create" or "Creating Music That Invokes the Idea That a Person Can Acheive His/Her Dreams" will get you a long way in your endeavor.
Putting the dreams down on paper is the very first step to making the dream come true - and this is done long before you create your Press Kit.
A stated purpose and a general layout of the steps to do are vital to the success of any venture, whether it's a project around the house, a business idea that you want to bring to fruition or any type of dream that you want to achieve - getting the basics written is the first step.
A bright idea, no matter how out of this world, can be accomplished if a person sits down and works it out. Keep it simple. It is not necessary to get complicated or verbose about your ideas or purposes.
What is needed is to create a simple statement of purpose, then a concise layout of the steps that you can do to accomplish it.
For example, to name the purpose of being a successful working musician, consider the following questions in order to write your purpose:
1. Are you creating music to help people in any way? or inspire others? or to help yourself to express emotions that are important to let others know about?
2. Why music? Why not working in a factory? Why would you want to get famous as a singer/musician?
3. What is it that you are looking to acheive with your music?
Write out your purpose, work on it until you have it just right. The next article will be about how to write your plan.
To Your Success!
