Commentary from the Music Room: Resolutions, in two parts
http://azimoth.blogspot.com/2014/01/resolutions-in-two-parts.html
Commentary from the Music Room. Irregular comments, noticings, and perhaps the occasional observation. Sunday, January 5, 2014. Resolutions, in two parts. It’s that time of year: time to make resolutions we’ll mostly never keep. We’ve all done it (or not done it, as is usually the case), so how to do things differently so you can achieve something? How to improve ourselves and not give up or feel like a failure for not living up to our giddy, hung-over expectations at the beginning of a new year? 8230;wi...

Commentary from the Music Room: July 2012
http://azimoth.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Commentary from the Music Room. Irregular comments, noticings, and perhaps the occasional observation. Tuesday, July 3, 2012. Tuesday July 3rd, 2012, 194, NS, JotD, AAD 33. Rise at 5:45. Sitting, working with the theme of Goodwill (in addition to Intention and Presence). My sense of this is one of building, that Goodwill requires both to be true and honest. A delay getting out of the house (not due to inattentiveness for a change), and in to work. Lower-body focus in the gym today:. Tuesday, July 03, 2012.

Commentary from the Music Room. Irregular comments, noticings, and perhaps the occasional observation. Friday, November 22, 2013. Up before the alarms this morning. Lisa is home, so the house is returning to its normal state (particularly for the animals). Happy moment this morning when the CGT came up on Slacker (The Marsh). So, do the work, or stand firm. Either way, we at the bottom lose. Friday, November 22, 2013. View my complete profile. Links, Friends and Oddities. Guitar Circle New England.

Commentary from the Music Room: April 2014
http://azimoth.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Commentary from the Music Room. Irregular comments, noticings, and perhaps the occasional observation. Tuesday, April 1, 2014. A couple of interesting items popped into my inbox last week - the first from Seth Godin's blog (if you haven't subscribed, I really encourage it). He has posted a mini e-book. About placebos and the placebo effect. We normally associate this with medicine, but his perspective is for marketing. A very interesting read, and holds two points for me:. Tuesday, April 01, 2014.

Commentary from the Music Room: September 2011
http://azimoth.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Commentary from the Music Room. Irregular comments, noticings, and perhaps the occasional observation. Wednesday, September 28, 2011. 200 (-32), NS 59, 5:30 AM, LF. I did get half-unstuck Saturday night with a longer 1-2 NLHE session, so the weekend wasn't a complete loss. The way I figure, I've got a certain amount set aside, and that's the limit. If I get some back, I've had a good weekend. If I get even, it's a great weekend. If I'm ahead, then it's an awesome weekend. Wednesday, September 28, 2011.

Commentary from the Music Room: Here comes the course
http://azimoth.blogspot.com/2015/06/here-comes-course.html
Commentary from the Music Room. Irregular comments, noticings, and perhaps the occasional observation. Wednesday, June 3, 2015. Here comes the course. Here comes the course. In the week leading up to a guitar course, for me there is a ramping up of energy, a sharpening of focus, an awareness of internal and external detail. I wonder at this – am I simply anticipating the course, and so am more aware of what I do ahead of it? How does one empirically test such a thing? Is that even necessary?

Rise at 6:40 - no gym this morning, as it's a day off. Shower, sitting and off to work. Presence is the Theme for this week, and a constant return to where I am in this moment. Easier said than done. Now practice, some light gaming and to bed. Thursday, June 28, 2012. Location: Manchester, CT, USA. Monday, June 25, 2012.

Commentary from the Music Room. Irregular comments, noticings, and perhaps the occasional observation. Tuesday, November 26, 2013. If you write, then you will have more writing. Bob Lewis ( http:/ www.weblog.keepthejointrunning.com/. And Kevin Kelly ( http:/ kk.org/. Am I being too cynical? Am I presenting this intentionally, whether it be humorous, cynical, confrontational or thoughtful? Tuesday, November 26, 2013. View my complete profile. Links, Friends and Oddities.
