I bumped up the volume last night to really push myself. It may not be comfortable, but going the easy safe and comfortable route leaves my subconscious with way too many opportunities to sabotage me. Maybe in the future it'll be easier, but for now I'll do whatever I have to do to make it over these hurdles in my life.
Worked on some music today. Bumping up the volume must have helped because I found myself pushing forward and not getting stuck in those little self doubt loops that ruin my creative decisions. I still find it hard to finish songs, but I've identified why. It's because I put too much pressure on myself to create something super unique or different vs just following my intuition. I can easily create something if I just follow through on it as long as I don't set ridiculous expectations for myself.
I watched a producer in the studio video and the way he worked on his music inspired me. He had such a carefree attitude, no pressure, just having fun. As ridiculous as it sounds, I rarely get that. But I'm going to work on dropping the expectations and focus on just having fun.
