Not everything is supposed to be run like a business.
frankly, I think that applies to most businesses as well.
really,
Care about more than just making money. please.
and by god, don’t define yourself in terms of how much money you make, your relationship to others, within a business, elsewhere, or to a business.
you are an individual. be a good one. have a heart. 
Thought of the Day
Appearances aren’t important, nor are what others “might” or might not think.
Truth is.
it’s interesting, being an individual who
1. didn’t really understand a lot of normalcy as a child.
2. still doesn’t.
3. wouldn’t and doesn’t choose said normalcy when given the choice.
4. didn’t and doesn’t feel the system was designed with him in mind.
5. doesn’t feel obligated in any way to present, TO ANYONE, ANY kind of AIR or APPEARANCE OF NORMALCY.
wo… weird…
thought I just had:
when it comes to MY teaching, I just thought almost instantly of many examples where, when “I” teach, the following notion is true:
“It’s not my job to make you feel good.
It Is my job to make you do what you DO good (being play music in my case.)”
(you can argue that there is nothing too wrong about making students feel good, indeed.) just saying.

is it me, or are a great many
business people and such
VERY UNCREATIVE?
that’s not really a question at all.
it’s my opinion.
it seems to me that very often, all such people care about is “mindlessly, UNCREATIVELY and UNCRITICALLY
COPYING what has come before, which in it’s original form was probably
invented by
1. a creative
2. risk-taking person.

attachment to perfection, to what has come before.
do not be that way.
ever.
take fucking risks.
fail fucking miserably.
only them might you fucking fly.
(I didn’t mean to give offense in this post, I simply was a bit resentful when I wrote it. I simply wish businesspersons were in general more creative, and no, it wouldn’t be too bad if creative persons (like me) were more business saavy, somehow (sp.)
Oh, and they shouldn’t be so unimaginative and conformist and fearful and mundane. they should take far more chances and such. Basically, what I already said:)
Think I find
IDEAS
and THOUGHTS
far more interesting than
most people
and most everything else as well.
somehow tonight while playing music with some friends I managed to find myself playing
7 notes to the dotted quarter note, in 5/4.
meaning, when the guy playing in 5/4 (it was actually 5/16 (4 bars) against quarter notes (five of them of course)
meaning I played 14 notes every three quarter notes, so
YEAH, when the guy playing in 5/4 had played 3 bars, 15 quarter notes, 60 16th notes…
I had played 70 notes in the same space.
SIX AGAINST SEVEN, i.e, 3 against 3 and a half
WTF
fuck yeah
