12ÌýBe Realistic When it comes to building a career, first thing to remember is that it's going to take time and a whole lot of effort.
"Every release has to be treated as a stepping stone. Very few people come through with a hit on their first release."

Keep your targets realistic and reach higher each time.
Sure, you'll get knock-backs but that's just how it is.
Think of your career in terms of steps and it'll help you to maintain momentum and keep your dreams grounded in reality.
Try to learn from the bits that don't go well in order to help you with your next step.
The more heads you can get who are willing to say they like your music, the easier it is to get everyone else on your side.
Even though your record was made by you, contains your ideas and thoughts and was put together by your hard work, don't take it personal if mans ain't feelin' it.
Be objective. Some artists say that thinking about the track as if it wasn't theirs helps.
No doubt, it can be really hard to retain a cool profile when inside all you wanna do is let out a shout of frustration but don't get vexed and stay on point.
