Welcome to Episode 200 of my podcasts The view from the crow's nest. It is Wednesday the 20th of January, 2021, or 20 2021 2001 2021. I'm getting myself confused. Anywho, sorry I missed yesterday. I got to bed late ish but Simona was already in bed asleep and the kids were sleeping the other room and I didn't fancy going in the bathroom and doing the podcast so basically I just didn't do it. I'm sorry. So, caught me where I was, but the last few days I've definitely felt overwhelmed. again, and so many things to do, trying to fit everything in, and, you know, everything is a full time job and I'm trying to do 10 of them so I'm definitely struggling with that. But nonetheless, you know, bit by bit I'm getting there I'm coming. I think I'm coming out of my recent sort of two three week three week probably Uber focus on music marketing, my own music and also other people's have an increase in my knowledge increasing my experience, and practising what I preach and getting stuff out there, etc. And now I think I'm coming to the point where I need to take a little bit of a break from that. That said, I've got a couple of, you know, clients for audience ninja and it looks like today, I've brought onboard, another client. So, they want to go they want to do it. They want me to invoice them so assuming they pay the invoice then we're in business. So that's really exciting. Another musician who's really dedicated which I really love because you know they're going to do what they need to do which is brilliant. And, you know, I'm getting good results so that my current clients so I'm very, very happy, very confident that we're going to replicate it with them. But of course it does mean that it's more music marketing work and less time for my other projects particularly my own music, and it also means the pressures on a little bit, and, you know, want to increase my skills and my knowledge even further because I really want to get good results for my clients. So yeah that's that's kind of a blind eye to love my album that's just, just will not die that won't that I keep doing for a bit and then moving away from for necessity. I want to get back to you by the end of January I want to be back working on that and, you know, knocking through the tracks, because I really want to get the album finished ASAP, which I've been saved for months I know, but I'm getting closer, but I just haven't put any time on into music production for a good sort of six weeks, I guess. So I've kind of feel a bit rusty but I'm sure once I don't want to two sessions I'll, I'll be back into it and it won't have that psychological barrier. I remember reading. Very true point about basically psychological barriers and how to kind of overcome them and often starting something is far more challenging. Getting literally getting yourself started mindset and getting started than actually doing it. So the thing that I'd read was about exercise, running in this particular case and he said, you know, instead of thinking you got to get up get stuff on bla bla bla go out and run and then you never do get your stuff ready and put it by the door so that you've got one less thing to kind of think about you see the stuff they just put my feet in there and, you know, any little thing you can do to trick yourself into making it easier in the moment when your willpower is going. I don't want to do that. You know will help. Case in point, I had drum kit downstairs in our old apartment block for like five years, and I basically never really used an electronic drum kit. And then when we moved into the flowers very excited to hear I was very excited because we got stuff Brian from England, including the drum kit. I set it up in this sort of storage room so this kind of music room. And, you know, you could walk up to it is you know you had to pull a bed or like a rolling bed out of the way, which was easy enough and unlock the door to walk in and I basically never touched it.
