6 Things to Do When On a Musical Plateau

<p>I&apos;m wondering if you can identify with a personality type that I happen to identify myself with, and that is that of a high achiever. Now a high achiever is someone who just naturally always wants to be progressing, like isn&apos;t usually completely satisfied with where they&apos;re at in any arena of life and always wants to continue to go forward and get better, which has been a great thing for a lot of aspects of my life and has really helped me out and been a great tool. <br/><br/> On the other side of things, sometimes it&apos;s actually been quite the detriment because not feeling satisfied with where you&apos;re at continually can be a big problem and you have to learn how to manage that. <br/><br/>Well, musicians and creative types often identify with this kind of personality type. They want to move past musical plateaus and become better musicians continually. <br/><br/>So, in today&apos;s episode, I want to talk about six things you can do if you find yourself on a musical plateau and how you can start overcoming that, and also managing the feeling of being on a musical plateau. <br/><br/><b>In this episode:</b><br/><br/>1.
