It seems like my new dream is starting to crystallize. I love what I do as a full-time church music director. And I am blessed to be in the congregation I am currently in. However, I love teaching music lessons and I love writing music. What my new dream consists of is really focusing in on bettering myself as a composer/arranger, and building up my teaching, so that I am able to tithe much of my salary back to the ministry of the church. Bold and ambitious? Absolutely!
One of the key steps is over the next few months, putting an extra intentional focus and effort to daily (and a majority of Fridays) work on composing and arranging music and uploading it to my website. Along with that, figuring out marketing strategies to reach more people and get a larger audience for my music and for my lessons in NE San Antonio.
Does that mean I want to give up what I'm doing? Absolutely not. I believe that all 3 can work concurrently and overlap to make me a better musician.
What does this look like? I have no clue. Is it scary? Absolutely. Will people be interested? Maybe. But what I do know is going down this path at worst helps to better me as a musician, and at best financially benefits my church, my family as well as bettering me as a musician. I appreciate your feedback, input and thoughts.
