Motto or Mantra that motivates you.
« on: January 27, 2016, 10:52:50 am »
A few weeks ago I stumbled across a saying that was posted with no relevance to music whatsoever. But it just stuck in my brain and when I'm feeling unmotivated it gets me going again, so I thought I'd share it with you guys and see if any one else had any of their own!

"I haven't come this far, to only come this far"

"Earth is round right? Look at it from right angle and you'll be always on top of the world."

...made it up one day. A depression always kinda screws that feeling, but here you go anyway. :)
(And yeah, my dreams even left the studio. I imagine to have a friendly beer with them. :D )

...but don't overdo it, because that's called being a d***k.

I work at a company that makes a lot of huge motivational posters every day that employees can take home. This particular one definitely motivates me with everything.

"If you do nothing, nothing happens."

Basically, work for what you want and don't expect success without the journey of getting there.
I'm just that guy that loves sound. Message me if you also love sound.

"We gon be alright" - Kendrick Lamar

I played that song whenever I things got rough for me, and I still do it now.

In regards to the phrase "why?". I have never found a better response other than "why not?"

In regards to not giving a fuck. "sometimes that's just the way it goes" really calms me down.
