From the course: One Minute Motivational Tips for Songwriters
Overcome your fear
- [Instructor] Overcoming our fear of songwriting is one of the big hurdles that we all face as writers. I understand that fear. I still experience it years and years after writing my first song, and it comes down to taking what you do seriously, and facing issues that you aren't necessarily facing on a regular basis. So when you sit down to write you dig into that emotional place, and you dig up the scary stuff. That's good, and that is ultimately what makes for genuinely moving songs. So, overcome that fear, and sit down and write the song that you are scared to write. You'll be glad you did.
