88 | Too Many Ideas? The Power of Choosing One Creative Practice for the Year Ahead

from Singer Songwriter | How to Write a Song, Make Music, Song Lyrics, Music Theory, Singing Lessons · host Lainey Prendeville Crawford - Vocal Coach, Singer, Songwriter, Songwriting Coach

If you’re heading into the new year feeling creatively overwhelmed — with too many ideas, unfinished projects, and uncertainty about where to focus — this episode is for you. So many singer-songwriters struggle not because they lack inspiration, but because choosing one direction feels risky. What if you pick the wrong project? What if you lose momentum? What if you don’t follow through? In this episode, we explore a gentler, more sustainable approach to creative focus: choosing one creative practice instead of forcing yourself to commit to a specific outcome or project. Rather than asking, “What should I make this year?” we shift the question to, “What is asking for my devotion?” You’ll hear: Why having too many ideas can create creative paralysis The difference between choosing a project and choosing a practice How focusing on one creative practice builds clarity, consistency, and trust A guided listening exercise to help you tune into what wants your attention right now How devotion to practice can naturally support songwriting, singing, and creative momentum This episode is an invitation to slow down, listen inward, and release the pressure to have everything figured out. You don’t need to chase every idea — you only need to choose the practice that can hold them all. If you’re craving creative clarity without burnout, and focus without force, this conversation will meet you right where you are.   <3 Lainey   Related Episodes: 85 | A Creative Year-End Ritual for Singer Songwriters: Reflect, Renew, and Reconnect with Your Voice 35 | Renew Your Artistic Vision in the New Year with This 5-Step Creative Exercise for Singers & Vocal Artists   Next Steps: Book a Coaching Session: reawakenyourvoice.com/coaching Join the Newsletter: reawakenyourvoice.com/insider  Visit the Website: reawakenyourvoice.com Email Me: [email protected]
