Working on the music for the past week or so, and sorting out BandCamp, has really given me something to focus on. While I've been putting tracks together for the past couple of years now finally getting things onto a platform where someone could potentially pay has brought it home that this is the most serious I've ever been about it. There is a duty of care to make things sound as good as I can within the confines of what I have.
I was supposed to have a CBT session on Monday in which I was due to suggest things that I specifically wanted help with. I was struggling to come up with anything beyond what we had already been talking about so, in a way, it's handy that I had to cancel.
My brain has been full – in a good way – and I've been too occupied to dwell on things, especially negatives. I needed this. I'm hesitant to call it a distraction as it's more finding enjoyment and purpose in doing something creative and productive, something just for me. Finding that sense of purpose in something, even if only for a while.
