Why You Never Finish Songs (And How to Fix It)
If you want your music to actually improve, you have to finish more of it — not just start ideas or endlessly tweak the same song. In this episode, we talk about why perfectionism and self-doubt keep musicians stuck, how resistance shows up right when you’re close to done, and why having simple systems and real deadlines is the key to finishing more music and getting better in the process.
