Does your music have a message? Happiness? Anger? Sadness? What is it?
.
Someone suggested to me that it's very hard to connect with people with a meaningful message which will express ourselves, and also move them.
But . . . if you want to make a meaningful impact on society, it doesn’t have to be hard.
Oh, sure - maybe it can take a while . . . if you don't keep at it.
Let me suggest . . .
Write something new.
Remove any self-imposed restrictions. Be brave - push the envelope - do stuff that others say you shouldn’t do. Break some rules.
If you've been 'at it' for long enough, maybe you have enough experience now, to rewrite some of those old rules.
Break some rules - write some rules - and then meet your audience half-way. Be ambitious and brave; and still care about your audience.
Everyone will think about it a little differently . . .
.
We don’’t have to search for greatness . . .
Instead of setting out to do great things - continue what you’re doing, but also start doing things you always wanted to try.
AND:
do everything 10% better than before
.
. . . and make that 10% a habit.
Try stuff you can not yet do.
Just remember: 10% . . .
Keep that up - and, maybe help some folks along the way, huh?
. . . and you’ll leave a good mark in this world . . .
.
And - don’t plan to do it tomorrow . . . tomorrow never comes. We can only use today.
.
Only plan to do it tomorrow - - - if you don’’t plan to do it at all, eh?
