When you don't have a choice...

 ... you get things done. 

So make it impossible to have a choice. 

Except we always have a choice. 

So figure out the framework that gives the illusion of not havi by a choice. 

You either speak in wild abstraction or plain literalisms. 

Suitcase drumkit concept band is a solid idea... the drums have always been a key to your sound. 

Impose restriction and watch your creativity flourish. 

Limits lead to limitlessness. 

Ugh... you try so hard to be pretentious and end up just being vague and ambiguous and forgettably annoying...

Give yourself a break. 

It's not that deep. 

Think long and hard about being real with yourself. 

Think long and hard about being yourself. 

Being yourself is not a strength. 

Being genuine needs to be worked on. 

It's a journal of sorts. Record yourself, too. 

If you think too much, the thing runs away. 

Catch it before it's gone. 

Trap it but also let it go. 

Stream of consciousness has its place as does fastidious rigidity and ruthless editing. 

Curate and create and make sure it feels how you want it to feel. 

If it's not good enough at least make sure it's finished.
