Driving in the car to Maine for vacation and I’ve got one thing on my mind… My Half-Way-to-New-Year’s Resolution.  Six months ago, I don’t think I really had any plan for this year.  I think I got caught in the common rut of “just take life as it comes.”  That mindset is such a cop-out.

Then last night, I went to the John Mayer concert – and he blew my mind.  I got quite the education in music domination.  And it suddenly brought me back to 12, 14, 16, 19… when I had dreams.  And when that passion for music ignited creativity, and inspired me to write 3 or 4 songs every day.  Granted, I had more time then – but that’s a cop-out too.

God made me to do music – to write, to record, to produce, to pour my heart into every line of every song.  And that’s what I need to do.  So here’s my promise to you… to write more, to record smarter and faster, and to release more songs this year than I ever have before.  I still have half the year left, right?

Thanks to everyone who frequents my site.  To everyone who shares my songs with their friends.  To every friend on Facebook and Twitter and even Myspace (though you really need to get on board with the Facebook thing ;-).  Thanks to my friends and family for always sticking by me and encouraging me to do what I was born to do.  And thanks John Mayer for reminding me that it’s more than what I was born to do, or what I need to do – It’s what I love to do.
