When you’re just getting started it’s important to write and speak
your goals and intentions. What are your goals and dreams as a
performer? Maybe it’s nailing that high note you’ve never been
able to reach, overcoming performance anxiety, or channeling
things that inspire you into your own music.
Use the printable chart on the following page to write down 3, 6
and 12-month goals along with steps you plan on taking to reach
them. Don’t be afraid to dream big!
