I always give it 100% but i just never feel like i am accomplishing enough.I would rather do something creative or just something which doesnt revolve a round shuffling paper round a desk all day.I have a keen interest in music, tho getting a decent start in this industry has proved difficult to say the least. i have an active mind which is why i find it hard to sit at a desk all day and look into a computer screen.Just looking for any new ideas or thoughts to what direction i could possibly take.Any and all help is appriciated.

 Start with a part time internship, that will be unpaid, but get you in the door.
Take a class in local schools on the subject to meet other students and teachers of it. They are your future contacts and employers/ees.
Stay OUT OF DEBT. Nothing makes people leave the entertainment industry like racking up debts. It pays little for the hours you put in. Learn to be extra thrifty.
Learn everything you can about the music business and law(read Donald Passman and such). Start your own librairy and become an expert.
Good luck.
