About this listen
We all want to write better music.
But what if your pursuit of quality is the very thing holding you back?
In this episode of the Finish More Music Podcast, we explore the hidden trap that catches so many creatives off guard.
It starts with a healthy desire to improve…
But quickly spirals into: comparison, perfectionism, overthinking and endless detail tweaking.
And I don't have to tell you, these are not the ingredients for joy or creativity!
And here's the real kicker…
Not one of them actually improves the quality of your music either.
In this episode of the podcast, I shine a light on the subtle but deeply damaging trap that catches so many struggling creatives off guard.
We explore:
✅ The hidden ways "quality" can turn into creative sabotage
✅ Why obsession with improvement often leads to less progress
✅ How common strategies like genre-hopping and sample-hoarding backfire
✅ What really builds confidence in your music
✅ A different way to approach growth — one that fuels momentum instead of killing it
These are lessons I've gleaned from working with thousands of creatives, distilled into practical steps you can take right now.
I hope you enjoy the episode!
