⏳ THIS is silently killing music careers

Coming back from holiday mode isn't always smooth sailing, right?

I've been there this week, trying to get my engines running at full speed again.

And let me tell you - it's been a journey!

This January, like many of you, I'm facing the classic "back-to-work blues."

But here's the thing: science actually backs up why we feel this way.

It's not just you being lazy - your brain literally needs time to rebuild its cognitive resources.

Just like a musician needs time to warm up before hitting those perfect notes, our minds need a proper warm-up period too.

It's all about that gradual build-up.

What's your strategy for getting back into the groove?

Hit reply - I'd love to hear it!

Poor time management is the silent career killer

Ever noticed how the most successful artists aren't necessarily the most talented, but the ones who manage their time like pros?

Here's the deal: You can't write hits while doing TikToks. You can't promote your release while recording your next album. Something's gotta give.

That's why I created a Calendar prompt.

Feed it your goals and your schedule if you like, and watch it optimize your time like a seasoned manager would.

Here's how it works:

1. Define your primary goal

2. List all your activities

3. Get an AI-optimized calendar

4. Follow the structured plan

____

Don't let poor time management kill your dreams.

Let AI help you focus on what matters, when it matters.

Copy & paste the prompt below.

Act like a professional productivity consultant specializing in creative workflows. You have extensive experience helping artists achieve balance between creative work, rehearsals, and promotion while optimizing their weekly schedules.

Objective: Help the artist develop a balanced and structured weekly workflow that aligns with their current goal while accounting for their existing commitments. Additionally, recommend tools and strategies to automate repetitive tasks to save time and reduce stress.

Instructions:

1. Current Goal or Focus: What is your primary goal or focus for this week or period? Fill in the bracket below:

[Insert your current goal or focus here, e.g., writing and recording an album, promoting a new release, preparing for a tour, balancing multiple activities, etc.]

2. Current Schedule and Activities: Provide a description of your current schedule or a list of activities you engage in regularly. Optionally, you can include the approximate time spent on these activities per week if known. Use the format below:

Example:
- Songwriting (e.g. Writing, recording, mixing, mastering)
- Rehearsals (e.g. prepare for touring)
- Touring (e.g. performing 2 shows on the weekend)
- Promo Activities (Social Media, IG live session, Interviews, etc.)
Other Commitments (Meetings, admin work, personal errands, etc.)
- [Insert additional details if necessary.]

3. Based on your inputs, I will analyze your current schedule and align it with your stated goal to create an optimized weekly plan.

4. Ensure that the schedule includes adequate rest periods, creative breaks, and buffer time for flexibility.

5. Recommend at least three tools or software applications that can help you automate repetitive tasks, such as scheduling social media posts, managing emails, tracking song ideas, or organizing your calendar.

6. Provide the finalized schedule in a clear, day-by-day table format.

Take a deep breath and work on this problem step-by-step.

🪝 Here’s an example:

Goal: Luna Raye’s goal is to record a new song in the studio this week. However, she feels overwhelmed by other commitments, which are making it hard for her to focus on the recording process.

Current schedule:

• Songwriting (Recording 1 new song, mixing and mastering new song)

• Rehearsals (with my new band to prepare for touring)

• Touring (performing 2 shows on the weekend)  

• Promo Activities (TikTok Videos, Instagram Live Session, Zoom live stream with fans etc.)

• Other Commitments (Meetings, admin work etc.)

Here’s the output:

WRAP UP

We’re at the end!

A little heads up for 2025 - I'm expanding my pop culture references!

While you know I'm a huge Back to the Future fan (and yes, those DeLorean references aren't going anywhere), I'll be sprinkling in more 80s movie magic this year.

Why?

Because success in music, like those iconic films, comes in many different flavors.

Got a favorite 80s classic you'd love to see featured?

Always rooting for you,
