Do you ever go into the studio to write music, really motivated and ready to achieve a lot, but then come out with pretty much nothing to show for it? Do you find yourself getting distracted and scattered, not making any progress?

Your ability to focus is one of the most important aspects of your progress towards your musical goals. If you’re working at a regular 9-5 job, you get paid for your time. If you’re unproductive, scattered, or unfocused, you still get paid - up until a point anyways. You could always get fired.

But for anyone who’s an artist, or self-employed in another field, your focus and productivity is everything. It determines your income, your opportunities, your status in the industry and more.

So that begs the question, how can you become more focused and productive? And what does it mean to be “focused”?

Let’s first break down focus. I like talking about it in 2 dimensions. Depth of focus, meaning how engaged are you in that moment. How honed in, or in the zone are you?

Second is length of focus. How long can you sustain focus for? Clearly, both depth and length of focus are important for producing music.

I’ve invested a lot of time and energy in personal development courses, reading books, studying how the brain works etc. My journey has taken me all the way from doing a 2 year coaching program with Les Hewitt, the author of The Power of Focus book, to studying with a Japanese Zen buddhist monk with a PHD in Deeper States of Consciousness. In this video, I want to condense down and share some core lessons I’ve learned along the way with the intention of assisting you in being more focused and productive when it’s time to be creative.
