    noiz viol8ion blog #407 – Your Standards

    Do you set a high bar or keep it low?

    It’s easy to lower the bar once you have failed multiple times. Once you lower the bar once you lower it again and then you begin accepting things below your standards. Your life is deteriorating and you don’t know why. You are scared to take risks and go into conservation mode. You know your not happy but don’t know what to do. You dug yourself into a whole and don’t know how to get out.

    It is up to you to change your lifestyle. Change your goals. Change your actions. Raise your standards. There is nothing in your way besides yourself.

    noiz viol8ion blog #406 – Raise Up

    There is no happiness in stagnation.

    I often hear, “Be happy with what you got! There are a lot of people who have it worse than you.” While this is true, this is not the best way to make your self happy.

    The only person you should compare yourself to is yourself. Comparing yourself to other people always leads to unhappiness because as soon as you compare to the people with less than you you jump to people with more than you and become unhappy again. Or even worse you surround yourself with people worse than you to make yourself feel better. Instead look at yourself and do everything you can to be better than you were yesterday. Slowly make progress in the direction you want to go.

    God helps those who helps themselves so raise up and help yourself.

    noiz viol8ion blog #405 – What’s Acceptable?

    Look around in your life and wonder why you have the things in your life that you do. Why are you in the house you live in? Why are you in a relationship with the person you are? Why are you doing the job you are? Why are you getting paid what you are?

    These things are in your life because you get what you accept. Whether consciously or unconsciously you have accepted everything you got. If you are not happy with what you got then you only have yourself to blame. You get what you deserve.

    Writing and producing music is a mental challenge. The blank DAW (digital audio workstation) is exciting and intimidating at the same time. Infinite ideas flow through my mind. Internal dialogue is all questions. Where do I even start?

    After I get started it opens doors to completely different universes. Does this work or should I go back?

    Doubt sets in if you sit for too long that is why its best to keep on moving. Don’t think and just go with your instincts.

    noiz viol8ion blog #403 – Daring Greatly by Brene Brown

    This a a great book that talks about the power of vulnerability. There is no shame in vulnerability. Putting yourself out there even though you have failed before is a great skill to cultivate. In baseball it is like stepping up to the plate to a pitcher who has been striking you out all day.

    You need to be completely honest with yourself and everyone else. Honest about your strengths and your weaknesses.

    Put your true self out there no matter what happens.
    Be open to criticism and feedback of others.
    Be so confident in your own skin that others opinions of you have no effect on you as a person.

    Everyone is going through there own battles but you being open about yours makes it easier for other people.

    The Secret is to give more. Figure out was to give more. There are many ways to give and you have to find the way that works best for you.

    The three best ways to give are the three T’s:
    1. Time
    2. Talents
    3. Treasure/Money

    Being present and giving your time is the most valuable way to give because this is the most limited resource. Give your time wisely.

    Very rarely is it sink or swim. Most of the time people put their toe in the water to test the water. This is the same with everything else. Before you are given everything you want you are tested with a little. Take money for example. If you have a little bit of money, manage it properly, and make a return then it becomes a lot. This is true for everything else to. If you take care of things you will be given more things.

    Love things and things will love you back.

    noiz viol8ion blog #400 – Respect is Paid

    To show respect you must pay respect. You pay respect in the words you say and the actions you take. To truly understand a person, employ empathy. Put yourself in the other person’s shoes and give them the benefit of the doubt. Once the whole situation is understood then pay your respect.

    Loving someone is more than just saying it. Loving is a verb. It’s actions you take to make their lives’ easier and better. You can see things about them that they can’t see themselves. Do not call them out on the shortcomings. Help them where they fall short. Lift them up when they are down. Show them how great they are and let them show you how great you are.

    noiz viol8ion blog #398 – Is it Worth the Suffering?

    Nothing in life comes easy. There are growing pains in going from where you at to where you want to be. There will be times you feel like giving up. There will be times you stuck and feel like you are going no where. There will be times when all the pressure is on you and you are all alone.

    If you knew something was going to be hard then why would you want to do it. Why do you workout? Why do you goto a job? If you see an end goal that lights you up then it will get you through the darkest times. If you are becoming the person of your dreams the you will gladly suffer.

    What is worth the suffering for you?
