Good day, my friends. I want to say “what’s up” to readers in the Denver area, as I’ll be in your ‘hood for a couple days. Why is it so hot here?? I know I know…it’s a “dry heat”… 😉
Here is your Friday 5!
Guitar Tip
Here’s a great way to work on your guitar styles and transposition. Pick a key, like G or C, and then see how many songs you can string together with as smooth of transitions as possible. Feel free to change the styles, your objective is to make everything flow together.
Productivity
I’ve heard many brag about their ability to multi-task. I’ve even heard such boasts come out of my mouth. But research shows it’s not actually an efficient approach. Focus on one thing at a time and you will likely get more done in your day.
What I’m Reading
I can’t remember if I’ve included this before or not, but I’m revisiting one of my favorite books, Surely You Must Be Joking, Mr. Feynman. It’s about a brilliant scientist who wasn’t afraid to follow his curiosities and live life to the fullest. And it’s hilarious.
How I’m Listening to Music
I spend a lot of time commuting, so I put my music through some good headphones. I’ve had these V-MODA headphones for a couple years and still dig them.
