The most devastating thing artists can do to their career is get in their own way, and way too many people do. It’s not the labels, the industry, the fans, the cities, the economy, the social media, the marketing, the promoting, the “right time, ” the music, or whatever other excuse you can come up with that determines whether you succeed or you fail. It is you–no one else. Loren Weisman
