Your To-Do List Is Killing Your Music Career

Are you constantly busy with “music stuff” – but still feel stuck, behind, or one step away from burning out?
In this video, we talk about how to move from exhausted to effective as a musician by using AI as a support system, not as another source of pressure.
This is Part 2 of my mini-series on AI for musicians.
In Part 1, we focused on creativity.
Here, we dive into your day-to-day music life: projects, time, communication and mental load.
You’ll learn how to use AI to:
turn a messy cloud of to-dos into a clear project overview
create a realistic weekly rhythm that fits around gigs, side jobs and life
get faster at emails, captions, bios and applications without sounding generic
reduce that constant “I should be doing more” feeling by giving your brain structure
👋 I’m Martin from Music & Mind – professional musician, psychology grad and systemic coach.
I help artists use psychology and technology to make better music while taking care of their mental health.
In this episode:
Why so many musicians feel busy but not really moving forward
How to brain-dump a project into an AI tool and get a structured task list back
How to let AI suggest a simple weekly plan you can actually stick to
How AI can handle the first draft of communication, so you don’t get stuck starting
A healthier definition of productivity that doesn’t require destroying your nervous system
