Work Beats

cyeh March 25, 2012

I went to LA last week and met someone that gave me a whole new insite about music.

About dubstep, electro music, brostep, and things I've never known partly because iTunes just categorizes all electro music as "Dance" music whether it be Skrillex, Avicii, or Fun.

Anyway, I had a pretty hard time waking up this morning but I wanted to be productive for the rest of the day so I put on some music and started cleaning my room.

Burial is one of the artists that was introduced to me and I really enjoy listening to them when I'm working. There's no melody to sing along to but there's a catchy beat that just keeps me going.

I especially enjoy their 2007 release Untrue.

My favorite song is:

Archangel

Now this is supposedly how dubstep started and what dubstep really is. Not the head banging stuff that we hear at house parties.

not a priority?

cyeh March 22, 2012

I read a really cool post today here and it has really got me thinking about all my priorities in life.

What I haven't been doing and what I should take some time out to do.

Change your language.

Instead of saying “I don’t have time” try saying “it’s not a priority,” and see how that feels. Often, that’s a perfectly adequate explanation. I have time to iron my sheets, I just don’t want to. But other things are harder. Try it: “I’m not going to edit your résumé, sweetie, because it’s not a priority.” “I don’t go to the doctor because my health is not a priority.” If these phrases don’t sit well, that’s the point. Changing our language reminds us that time is a choice. If we don’t like how we’re spending an hour, we can choose differently.
