I was a professional/semi-professional musician for 14 years. I played, sang, produced, engineered, taught and wrote. I've had songs on the radio. Not big hits, though. I've played with people you've probably heard of.
But looking back through the eyes of my current identity as a businessman, I wish somebody would have told me early on to seek out a niche. I was all over the board, and even though I was well-respected, my lack of focus kept me from more significant achievement.
