Create More Than You Consume

When I was a teenager, my plan was to be a professional guitar player. I took guitar seriously and played for hours every day.

I did whatever I thought would help me improve, including purchasing a "finger exerciser" through a classified ad in the back of a guitar magazine. 

When I mentioned this to my guitar teacher he told me, “If you want to get better at guitar, the best thing you can do is play guitar.”

The same is true for podcasting. If you want to get better at podcasting, the best thing you can do is make podcasts.

I love online podcasting communities. I love books on podcasting. 

But neither is a replacement for you getting behind the mic and making a podcast. If you’re not doing that, none of the other stuff matters.

Thanks for reading this. Now go make a podcast.
