YOU KNOW THAT MOMENT when you write something or learn an easy part on the piano and you’re just re-reading it over and over and over and over? THAT’S BASICALLY JERKING OFF MENTALLY. STOP DOING IT.

Looking at yourself in a mirror is the same thing!!!

A scale of uncommon addictions from more mental to more physical:

  • Daydreaming
  • Mirrors
  • News
  • Music
  • Internet Browsing
  • Social Media
  • Video Gaming
  • Pornography
  • Coffee
  • Tea
  • Alcohol
  • Television

I am not sure what would happen if someone had literally nothing to do. Like you literally eliminated all these addictions. Maybe they would just stare at the floor? I hope to reach that level of inspiration and focus.

Random: It is only in moments of intense danger that I feel calm. Otherwise I feel myself bouncing between frivolities. But I think it is unwise to seek danger.
