Life & Death Haikus: Push Forward (Original Poem)

in #poetry7 years ago


Consistency wins
9 times out of ten even
When quality lacks...


My best friend is a perfectionist but puts out a lower work rate and supply of high quality music where as I am a contrast to where I have a high work rate, I aim for high quality but will still share ideas even they could be recorded better. I feel I will come back to it again and rerecord it whenI can dedicate the best equipment and focus on it, but sometimes as an artist, I just want to share the idea because as I mention often, people won't hear it if I keep it and hold it hostage until I think it is absolutely perfect. Time is not on our side and my music can change lives like it has before, even if it wasn't the polished version. Sometimes you just gotta leap out and take the risk and stay consistent.

Quality in any thing attracts people but if you are consistent، you get better result۔ A consistent fruitfull tree attracts more birds than quality fruitfull tree so just keep consistent on your work you will find quality one day due to lot of practice

Love poem ride on man

It totally depends on the person. Some people put a lot of effort and then throw product into the market and some do it constantly without putting too much effort. Success all depends on the luck and public's view. I have seen many music videos which got huge views on Youtube though they just came out after a few days of hard work.

i think you are right ,,,because when we keep trying for something its results one day will be in better reward then time will be yours and sometime we also get some such amazing things which we perhaps missed out if we gave up

Awesome, upvoted follow and resteem

Sometimes a rough sketch
Is all that will ever be
Of your good idea

I agree about perfectionism. In it's extreme, it is actually ego-based to be too much of a perfectionist, as it is usually mostly anxiety that their art will not be appreciated if it's not 'good enough.'.
It creates stagnation, which is counterproductive to the creative person's life and livelihood.
As the old martial arts idiom powerfully states,

"Worry is the rust upon the blade."


And you're right about consistency too, in that we now live in the digital era and people respond to regularity, so commiting to creating and posting to a particular schedule is more important than worrying whether it's good enough. fans/supporters become used to when you release something and have the expectation. If you're not consistent, they'll lose interest.
That being said, each of us should raise the bar of our standards with every single creation. If we're not, then we're being lazy and we aren't growing as artists and as content creators.
Anyway, thanks for a great thoughtful post!
