Diversify your skill set
The people who are blessed to work the longest in any industry that I know of are the ones who diversified their skills. They learned various aspects of the job or career and inevitably made themselves more valuable. Again, having something to fall back on his key. If the position that is your chosen career is suddenly discontinued or the corporation has layoffs the person with the most diversified skill set usually will have the most value and is the most difficult to let go.Â
Really nice article, great advice. Being in the over 35 but under 50 range and still pursuing an entertainment career can be tough at times but it’s in my heart to keep going. Thanks Kevin!!
I arrived at this site accidentally while researching for a radio station to send my first single for airplay. I am glad that I found this site and that I took the time to read the whole article. This article is very encouraging. It also reinforced my efforts for career change and to diversify my skills and abilities although I am over 35. It is well intended and well written. My sincere thank you to Kevin Ross for caring and sharing. I am an emerging independent singer/songwriter wanting an airplay for my first single.
My regards,
