The Successful Songwriter - Motivation and Meditation

Developing the Mindset for Songwriting Success Through the Power of Intention

De: Troy McConnell, Penny Dionne

Narrado por: Penny Dionne

Your thoughts are so powerful that they can move you forward or hold you back. They drive your actions, feelings, and habits. You may praise yourself or criticize yourself. You could just think about finishing that half-written song - or you can use the power of your mind to imagine the outcome, then take focused steps to finish it. Everything you manifest in your life is the direct result of what you think about on a consistent basis. This includes your success as a songwriter! This audiobook will help you focus your goals and develop the habits you need to realize your songwriting dreams.
