Well today marks the first day in about a month where I feel that I actually have a handle on my clients. Sure there are some rough patches, but people are paying and the level of terror has dropped a significant bit. A lot of these concerns where alleviated by discussions with my superiors and thus we bluntly stumble into today’s life lesson.
I know I want to be that guy who knows everything, but I’m not and never will be. I want to do everything on my own, but sometimes a 10 minute conversation with someone who’s been there before will spare you hours of time. Point being reach out and look for the counsel of wise people in matters that bring you difficulty. Swallow that pride.
New tune “Snow Bank” was cranked out I’m picking up the polished mix from Aaron today for lunch. Not sure on the product it’s definitely a love or hate affair. And one of the issues when you spend 7 hours working on a project is you absolutely begin to lose objectivity. It’s more often the case that we work all night only to come back the next day and wonder who let the drunken tone deaf clowns produce and engineer the album while we slept. The answers always us and typically the reason is that we never have the common sense to actually step outside of the project even for a few moments.
Unfortunately, Aaron seems to suffer for the compulsive characteristics that I do. While I would never say an unkind word against a friend, I know for myself that I am either your main man. I’m one hundred percent into what were doing and I’m giving it my all, or I’m just a whiny petulant bitch that won’t pay attention and forgets key details. I’ve worked quite hard to even this out but it’s a struggle.
Hey if we were all even then the world would have no excitement.
Happy Thursday!
