The road to success in music is often arduous. There is also no such thing as an overnight success.
While many artists in the limelight seem to appear out of nowhere, I guarantee there are years of hard work and dedication, setbacks, and even failures that these artists have had to experience to get to where they are today.
What's it called when you experience pitfalls, and when things don't go to plan, but you dust yourself off and get back up again?
Persistence. And there's arguably nothing in the world more critical for achieving your goals.
