Recently, I’ve been growing more and more frustrated with songwriting/improvisation. I make up little chord progressions, but I never really get much further. But I realized something.
Improvisation on the piano is the same as improvisation in life. Everyday, we face situations that require us to think on our feet.
I’ve realized something else as of late. Things, especially life, come easier when you relax and have fun. While I stressed about not being to write good songs immediately, countless melodies slipped faded from my mind. It’s like this: if you don’t have fun in life or in music (or whatever your craft is), then what is the point?
No, really, ask yourself: What’s the point without the fun?
Have some fun with it.
