It's not just about practice; there's also the business element, and not knowing if I'll "make it", despite a huge investment (gamble) in time, energy, resources.
I trust BASE will help rule out this uncertainty, and will sort out finances.
I also may have to move away from Eastern Ontario, Canada to a bigger music city in Canada, or even a major music city in the USA. This is something that frightens me, no doubt. And there's the element where I'd be highly scrutinized, where I'm at a point where my talent doesn't quite hold up to scrutiny.
Come east, we can hang out.

But I get you, but life is a gamble, as Alan Watts says "You gamble that you may die at any moment".
I think it's great you're doing what you love/want to do. My brother is the same, huge props to you guys for that. I, myself, have a different problem, I just want to do EVERYTHING but can't find the time lol.
Anyhow, I'd suggest you look at the biography (or, especially, an autobiography) of an artist you'd like to be like, and just read it. Soak in what sticks, and keep going.
