    Quit sitting around dreaming of what MIGHT be and just get to work and start doing it.

    Also, I would tell myself to not worry about the bills and to buy that Apple stock I was offered when it first went public heh. Problems would've been solved long ago with that one hah.

    I’ve learned, and honestly, I’m still working on it, that having fewer hardware options
    and plugins means more time to actually execute ideas.

    The more you fiddle with the tech, the more it kills the creative process.

    And most of the time, it ends up with you not getting anything done at all.

    maybe just me..

    Don't try to discover chord progressions with a magic wand. Use scales and learn about their degrees.

    Less is more, learn and use what you have to the max, only buy what you actually need, and dont get sucked in to GAS

    Oh an AI is going to ruin a lot of things...... and buy as many SSD and USB Drives for the future cause the prices are going to go through the roof. :wink:
