DON’T SECOND GUESS/OVER ANALYZE
-When I’m playing or writing I sometimes let myself overthink what I am doing which ends up restricting me from letting my ideas come through. Letting myself just play when soloing usually results in more fluid and melodic ideas.
DON’T LET WHAT OTHERS DO DISCOURGE YOU
-I have a habit of when I see other drummers playing, I think about what I would be doing in their situation, or if I even could do what they’re doing and it effects my playing. Same when it comes to writing.
TAKE INSPIRATION FROM EVERYHING
-Using things I like and letting those influence how, and what I play gives me new ways of looking at my solos, and tracks I write.
ALWAYS WORK HARD
-I always think about how there are people doing exactly what I am doing, and they’re working on it right now. I have to work hard to keep improving.
LET OTHERS HELP
-It always helps when I get input on what I’m doing. HONEST, and blunt feedback shows me what I need to improve and change.
HAVE GRATITUDE
-There have been a lot of things that have improved what I do. I feel like it’s good for me to show those things, and people that I’m grateful for those things, and people.
RECORD THINGS I LIKE
-I can record anything from a sound I liked to a part of a song, and to a conversation I’m a fan of. I can use these all later for inspiration in what I’m trying to do.
MAKE MISTAKES
-If I make a mistake, I can then learn from at it and do a better thing next time. Or own the mistake and go for it.
