Is writing poetry a waste of time if it's not strategical? (Idk if I want tomasterit)

[Manjushri]

went to a poetry night yesterday... talk about synchronicity... 

the causal chain. 

i mentioned poetry to one friend who then sent me that event. 

had lots of fun met great people. 

i already managed to make a song, combining the flute and the poem. i can see a big hit coming!!!

For each area of mastery, there are gonna be about 10 critical skills to master, not just one.

For example, as a photographer:

• Photo manipulation
• Lighting
• Photo editing
• Graphic design maybe
• Writing (if he's gonna be a travel blogger/photographer)
• Marketing
• Sales

As a musician:

• Ear training
• Improvising
• Lyric writing
• Composition
• Harmony
• Musical Theory
• Audio editing, mixing, mastering
• Video editing, mixing, mastering
• Learning to work with samples
• Learning multiple instruments (if you are a film composer)
• Marketing
• Live performance
• Networking and People skills

You are seriously underestimating the scope of the work. If your life purpose is music, you must master at least the top 3 skills from the usual 10 in your domain of mastery. That's why you have 60+ years ahead of you. So get to work.
