322. Awards aren’t everything for the D.I.Y. Rock Star Video Description As independent artists, we want to see progress and part of the measure of success could be by receiving accolades from a credentialed organization. So, it might feel great to be nominated for a Grammy or an Emmy or an American Music Award, but it this REALLY an indication that you have met your own personal creative artist goals–which, for us, includes impacting people through our messages, and gaining a following of folks that loyal and dedicated to witnessing our blossoming artistic journey. #awards #accolades #grammys #diyrockstar #prejipppie #bloomingprejippie How about you?
