How We Do Things

Verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, chorus, chorus.

It’s a formula that works and those very constraints can lead to creativity. But if we stay too comfortable, for too long, with the old formulas, we can suddenly find ourselves in a world that has moved on to something different.

Of course nothing wrong with sticking with what we know per se. But creative people, in a changing world, will always be more motivated to push the boundaries of how we do things.

Because that’s definitely…

More fun. More interesting.

And when the world is changing in bad ways, perhaps it is also…

More compassionate. More courageous.

Not just how we write a song. How we do anything.
