“I’ll start producing tracks when I find the perfect sound.” “I’ll launch my album when I'm an expert at mixing.”
Does any of this sound familiar? The ‘when’ keeps moving, and before you know it, you’ve built a wall between you and your goals. But here's the truth: there’s never a perfect time to start.
Humans never feel ready—especially when venturing into uncharted territory. Your brain resists change, throwing every excuse in your path: "What if my track flops?" "What if people don’t vibe with my mix?" "What if I’m not good enough?"
Guess what? You’re not good enough yet. That’s the point. You don’t become a great producer by waiting. You grow through the process, by doing—even when it’s uncomfortable.
Today is your day to begin.
Perfection won’t knock on your door and hand you everything you desire. Success comes to those who get their hands dirty, to those who experiment, fail, learn, and improve. Every loop, every synth tweak, every mixdown is part of the journey.
You won’t have all the answers from the start. No one does. Even the producers you admire were once in your shoes, tweaking presets, creating templates, organizing their workflow and wondering if they had what it took. They didn’t wait to feel ready to release their music. They just started.
Fear is natural. Progress is a choice.
It's easy to spot two types of producers in this world:
- The ‘I’m Not Ready’ Kind. These are the ones sitting on stacks of tutorials, watching every plugin review, and endlessly planning the perfect project. They have all the theoretical knowledge but never hit the ‘export’ button. They might be smart, but they’re stuck—because they're waiting for everything to be just right.
- The ‘Bring It On’ Kind. These producers are fearless. They dive into projects even when they’re not 100% sure of the outcome. They experiment, make mistakes, and keep going. They’re the ones shaping the sounds we love, pushing boundaries, and making noise in the industry. They don’t wait for permission; they create and learn along the way.
Which one will you be?
You don’t need the best gear, the perfect studio setup, or a flawless idea to start. You need obsession, grit, and a willingness to create, even when you don’t feel ready. The world rewards action, not hesitation.
Take that synth preset you’ve been holding on to, or that loop idea that’s been sitting idle in your DAW, and turn it into something today. It doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to exist.
Outwit your resistance. You’re ready.
