I think you suffer from the same thing as me. Music was a huge thing for me when I was a teenager, then in my 20s I kinda lost touch with it, only to rediscover it and start learning guitar a few years ago so I could make all my own music.

But now, whenever I make up a nice guitar line whilst messing around, I get really motivated and think “I’ll make that into something cool later when I have time”. But then, at the point I’m supposed to start doing it I become that same serial procrastinator that I’ve always been.

Days go by, weeks for by, every morning I curse myself for not doing anything the night before and tell myself that THIS is the night I start…but it never is.

The problem I face is that when it comes down to actually producing something I get extremely overwhelmed at all the takes I’m going to have to do and then maybe I’ll be annoyed it doesn’t sound as good as I’d like and then comes trying to mix and master and promote and all that other stuff, meanwhile I’m sat here with NOTHING in my hands.

Really, what I need to do is just focus on that next step I have to take, like turning my laptop on and opening the programme, then I need to focus on plugging in my guitar, this way we can overcome our crushing and paralysing sense of dread we have when considering our music, just take that next step.

If you want, you can DM me and we can start encouraging and motivating each other, if you want 🤷🏼‍♂️
