The 5 Lies I Used to (and Still Do) Tell Myself

---

In the absence of facts, it’s human nature to substitute fears in place of truth, and it seems that no matter how much we grow up and how much we accomplish there are lies we tell ourselves that can keep up from being in the moment or achieving the very success we’re going after.

So on today's episode, I want to talk about 5 lies I used to (and sometimes still do) tell myself about becoming a successful composer. Plus, I give feedback on action percussion cue written by 52 Cues Friend, Michael Reschke (https://soundcloud.com/michael-reschke).
