Making a career in music is possible and probable when you’re making the kind that a group of people want to hear and experience.
“Making a career”…not “Playing music”
“possible and probable”…not “easier and quicker”
“group of people”…not “everyone”
“hear and experience”…not “could take or leave”
Because then the sentence would look like this:
Playing music is easy and quick when you’re making the kind of music that everyone could take or leave.
We know the first version of the sentence is true…but if we’re not careful we’ll find ourselves wishing the second version of the sentence could just maybe work for us and sustain us.
