Running in place

Listening to: Wilco, Summerteeth

I’m feeling a little discouraged tonight. I happened upon my copy of the Artist’s Way from about ten years ago. I flipped through the book and read some of my journal entries. The same themes stood out then as do today. I work too much. I do not spend enough time making music. I want to be a rock star when I grow up. Nothing has changed really. Not even my approach or priorities. I’ve known for a long time that I work too much and too hard and I neglect making music which is what I love most. Why haven’t I made music a more important part of my life? Am I destined to stay in this continuous cycle - work, work, work with a little bit of music sprinkled in? How do I change?
