It’s winter. You broke off your engagement and your life is in pieces. Why not try an insane regime of writing/practicing/recording a new riff every day for… A hundred days? This was an impulsive decision that I’m very happy I went trough with.
The rule: Write a riff or a musical phrase that can be looped every day for 100 days.
There were days when this was easy. But there were days when inspiration eludes you and I felt like I never held a guitar in my arms. I won’t lie, this was hard. Pushing yourself to be creative no matter what and no matter how you feel.
It was incredibly rewarding though. I learned a lot and will probably share some key insights in approaching this problem in future posts.
