Remember your ABC's

Avoid negative sources, people, places, things and habits
Believe in yourself
Consider things from every angle
Don't give up and don't give in
Enjoy life today, yesterday is gone, tomorrow may never come
Family and friends are hidden treasures, seek them and enjoy their riches
Give more than you planned to
Hang on to your dreams
Ignore those who try to discourage you
Just do it
Keep trying to no matter how hard it seems, it will get easier
Love yourself first and most
Make it happen
Never lie, cheat or steal, always strike a fair deal
Open your eyes and see things as they really are
Practice makes perfect
Quitters never win and winners never quit
Read, study and learn about everything important in your life
Stop talking and start doing
Take control of your own destiny
Understand yourself in order to better understand others
Visualize your dream
Want it more than anything
Xcellerate your efforts
You are unique, nothing can replace you
Zero in on your target and go for it!

Nice man!! The only thing I would maybe "revise." Like my music teacher used to say... Practice doesn't make perfect, Perfect practice makes perfect!

Sohm, what instrument did you play? I had a few years on the Alto Sax.

Sohmy said...

I've played a few in my day, but in high school I was playing percussion. marimba being my instrument of choice. and to turbo... I think the quote love yourself first and most, isn't so much something we should try to achieve, but more a simple human characteristic. And if you love yourself first and most, then you will be able to love and be loved by others. I think the difference is between "loving" yourself, and being "in love" with yourself.

I think too much about stupid things

accurately quoted.

I was just looking up Glen Webb and I ran into your blog here. I am a former student of his. As a matter of fact, I believe the three of us were all students of his during some period of time between 2000-2003? I was in Percussion among other courses. My name is James Martin. I can't say I recognize you from the photos but your names sound very familiar.
Nice bikes by the way. It seems that I've got a common interest here as well outside of High school music. I have a Felt.
