If you want to be a professional singer and you have no idea where to start, then you need to read this blog! The first thing that I want you to do is to grab a pen and a piece of paper, a laptop or your notebook, whatever. You’ll need to write some things down.
Here are the following key points:
1. Write down your dream, your goal. Write it in huge capital Letters. Now that you’ve done that, you need to decide what you want to be and what you want to do. If your decision is to be a professional singer then you need to ask yourself the following questions. Do you want to write your own songs? Do you want to cover other people’s songs? Do you want to be a solo artist? Do you want to join a band, a group or a theatre company? You need to decide this and write this down and set the wheels in motion today. We need to do it today. Not tomorrow. Tomorrow is too late. Once you have done this and decided what your goal is, you now have a target to aim for. A definite direction to dedicate your energy.
2. Write down a course of action, your game plan. You need to write each task down in bullet points because as we achieve these, we’re going to mark them off. Make note of what you need to do to achieve your dream of becoming a professional singer? Do you need to find a vocal coach? Do you need to find a band? Do you need to find a songwriting partner and accompanist? Do you need to learn guitar or piano? Do you need to study songwriting, composition or music theory? Do you need to join a theatre group? Do you need to find a mentor? A motivator? A manager? A producer? What do you need to achieve your goal? So start researching, networking and taking positive action toward achieving your goal.
3. After you have written down your course of action, you need to maintain the inspiration to put these tasks into effect. You need to wake up every morning and read the dreams and your goals that you have written down. You need to read them again before going to bed. You also want to carry your list around with you in your wallet or your purse and if you have a spare minute or two during the day, read it then.
4. Start working towards achieving the tasks set. Start completing your tasks and mark off the steps to achieving your goals. It’s important to celebrate each bullet point that you mark off but it’s equally important to quickly move on and focus on the next bullet point.
5. “If you look, you’ll find”. That’s a great saying. You must put it out there! You have to make contacts, network and research. Make phone calls. e.g. You have to try to find a songwriter, a singing teacher or whatever it is. You’ve got to put it out there. When you put it out there, doors will start to open where walls only ever appeared.
6. Set a time limit for achieving each of your bullet point goals. Set an actual date that you want to achieve this by. This will help you stay focused and motivated. You’ll have to work to a deadline. Write the date next to each bullet point. With steely dedication and persistence, set about making each one of these bullet points a reality.
A couple of points here that you need to consider if you want to become a professional singer:
Love what you do. You’ve got to love doing this. You’ve got to love practicing. You’ve got to love working hard. You’ve got to love singing, song writing or whatever it is. You’ve got to love doing it. If you love doing it, you’ll dedicate a lot of time to achieving your goal. A lot of focus and energy is going to have to go in to it and if you love it, it won’t feel like a chore. If it is becoming a chore, you need to sit back, re-evaluate and look for another dream or passion. But if your passion or your dream is singing, you’re going to love the hard work. That’s the only way you’re going to be successful.
Believe in yourself. There’s going to be a lot of naysayers out there, but you have to believe in yourself.
Work your butt off. You’ve got to practice, you’ve got to study and you’ve got to do whatever it takes within reason to be successful.
Focus on one goal and one goal only. Give that one goal one hundred and ten percent of your attention, dedication, focus and energy. Do this and I guarantee you’ll be successful!
There is no time for Plan B. Plan B is just going to distract you from Plan A. So only one goal and one focus.
Put it out there. You have to put it out there and get yourself out there. Put your stuff on YouTube, websites, audition forums, play live, busk, contact booking agents, talent agents, managers, recording companies, producers, recording studios and TV shows. Whatever it takes, you’ve got to put it out there, work hard and believe in yourself.
