Okay, today was less successful than yesterday. Clean house, 90mins exercise and I appear to have secured someone to mix my EP (plus I managed to pull off some brilliant last minute work in my actual job) but I didn't quite get to what I wanted to get to - namely, cleaning my room and working on a job application. Also, lyrics. I did lots of arsing about with beats but no lyrics.
I will, of course, get to it all. This blog is doing the trick. I am raising my standards. I'm just annoyed I'm not there yet. I think that's a part of this process, though. I'm watching Scrubs right now and thinking of that Dr Cox quote: "That minute you look at yourself and in the mirror and are happy with what you see - you just lost the battle"
Obviously, that's a stupid philosophy in regards to vanity and it's not healthy to be disappointed in yourself all the time - ego, as Skyhooks sang, is not a dirty word - but there's something to be said about always aiming a little bit above your capacity. I am not a machine. I will never be able to work 24/7 - as much as I may like to - but if I aim to work beyond what I perceive to be my own capacity, I'll more than likely exceed my own expectations.
That all sounds like wanky claptrap but I'm tired and just rambling.
I really, really need to remember to do these earlier in the day.
