Daily Music Paradox
One of the coolest things about music, and being regular about it — setting up the morning routine, the Tuesday routine, the Wednesday demo deadline, all of it — is that if you make it everyday and stick to your schedule, and make it so rote and normal that it is just part of your day, you can expect completely different results.
A song you write today will not end up the same song you would have written yesterday. You will end up with something totally different, but the songs will get better. You are improving what you are doing, gathering skills, whatever you want to call it — total growth — and the end product still surprises you.
That is probably a paradox. I am not smart enough to figure out what the name of it is, but it is fascinating. The more you standardize the regular part of the work, the more different the result will be.
What else besides art behaves like that? In what other world is that even acceptable?
Something to think about today. For me anyway.
