I spend a lot of my leisure time in listening mode. Usually books and podcasts. I’m a bit of a learning nerd and like consuming information through audio. But recently I’m finding myself listening more and more to music.

Maybe it’s a mood, maybe it’s just June and I’m really tired, but I find every time I try to listen to something informative my mind just drifts. I lose focus, I lose the plot.

So, I’ve moved to music. I’ve listened to more music in the last week than I usually listen to in any given month. Music has been feeding my soul. It has been recharging my mental and physical batteries and making me feel alive.

I have so much respect and admiration for the creators of music. They put musical notes and lyrics together that touch people’s souls. They move us, inspire us, change our moods, and have us singing along with them.

Powerful.

I tip my hat to all the creatives out there who alter our reality with their beats. You change our lives in so many positive ways.
