Working 24/7 is a given if your an Indie Artist/Musician. Success = time + total commitment to becoming Indie/Independent. Most doors will be closed. But, there is always one that will open if your pursuit is endless.
Be ready to work you tail off. Through your work and efforts you will 'learn'. You will learn about many new areas of the music business, because, for the Indie Artist, Music is a business...A REAL BUSINESS.
As an Indie Artist you have total control and can't blame anyone else but yourself if things don't go right or don't get done.
As a woman Indie artist, the effort required to become successful will require 3X the effort.
All problems should be view as OPPORTUNITIES OF ABUNDANCE!
Flexibility means you must be patient, for patience is the key to Indie success. Hone your craft until your music shines and your band is 'tight' on all songs.
If what you are doing is not working, most likely it will not work until you discover other means to monetize you and your music. To me that key is in building a base of True Blue Fans. These are fans that promote you and your music 24/7 and they spend a minimum of $100 / year on you.
The stage is but one place where you connect with existing fans and make 'new' fans. Failure to connect is opportunities lost to build your True Blue Fan base.
Remember the only limit in music success, is YOU!
