I am rubbish at keeping things going. I start projects with gusto and a mega enthusiasm that borders on mania and then something just stops…I am hearing a lot about dopemine hits and I am definitely into those. I stopped getting a hit from these blogs but I think I'm gonna start them again - maybe as a way to vent my frustrations or express my joy? 

I have to get my focus back to the journey…be here now. Head up. Chin up. Write and write and record and play. I tell my students to ‘play’ not ‘practise’. I ask them "have you played the piano this week? have you said hello to the piano this week? Does the piano know who you are?' Well I need to play more that's for sure. 

Play and connect with my inner child. 

I am writing this at 6.30am while my sweet and all consuming 3 year old daughter is sleeping next to me, allowing me a rare bit of focussed morning time to myself.
