Sounds kind of funny to say

ANOTHER BLOG THAT IS ESSENTIALLY ABOUT THE HEALING PROPERTIES OF MUSIC!

Writing is therapeutic. Moosic is therapeutic. Why not both?

WRITING ABOUT MUSIC! (Kinda...)

Of course I could just write songs?

NOT REALLY MY THING!

I'll try my hand at this.

Like I've said before, sometimes a blog (or even a book) writes itself. Ideas come to fruition so naturally. Other times, (like right now) it feels like pulling teeth. "(Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth" - Metallica But whether it'll be a good idea or not, doesn't really matter. Consistency is key. *Repeating in my head: "MaKe It FiRsT, yOu CaN pErFeCt It LaTeR." The creative juices will start flowing again. (eventually) Sometimes it helps to just start writing. You might even form something coherent, who knows! So I can write about the tools I use to help me, but there's only so much I can do! Music and writing definitely help me, so find what helps you. Everyone is running their own race, so what's the rush? "Tom Sawyer" - Rush At least this is there for when I need it. Pouring into a creative outlet. 👍

Reaffirming myself that the days that lack creativity are still part of a creative life.

STARING AT MY LAPTOP SCREEN, HOPING A CREATIVE THOUGHT APPEARS!

Give yourself some credit.

STILL TRYING TO DIMINISH THE IDEA THAT I CONSTANTLY NEED PRODUCTIVITY!

These ones aren't really that much about music. I guess another self-help blog will have to do. But self-help and music go hand-in-hand more than you think. Someone else should write some lyrics about it. (like so many people have lol)

There are Instagram pages full of the kind of positive affirmations I offer. Follow those.

Form consistent healthy habits that are all part of a holistic process
