music has amazing effects.  you know that Rocky theme song? ....when you hear it you just can't help feeling more pumped up.  Do you have a song that really inspires you or gets you going?   people often listen to music especially for the purpose of getting revved up before playing a game or even while playing.  didn't some of those olympic skiiers listen to music while performing their medal run?  i will have to make some cd's that can give my living space some positive energy.  

anybody see Batchelor on abc?  yea i got hooked, the guy this season seems genuine.  a great catch for any girl.  what a weird twist, I was not seeing Moana being the one to go.  i thought they did all they ccould to mislead the viewer into thinking there was absolutely no chemistry between him and Sarah.  and engagement ring on a necklace,  hmmmm what a great way to make a quasi-promise but no promise.  lol

i've been away for a while, things were overwhelming but trying to take things in stride.  i have a date tomorrow, we'll see how that goes.  I am also thinking about my next career move....but i need to do things one at a time or something short circuits and i burn out.  hey at least i got my taxes done!!   oh that reminds me, i need to do my 2005 taxes now.   hope everyone has been doing well!!!!

Hey stranger! Well, as you know, music is a huge part of my life, from getting 'reved up' to getting into a relaxed state. I found it interesting you chose a instrumental as your song choice to get ya going. But a good one non the less. I have many songs I listen to to help me get a move on. But a huge fave is Chicago's Feeling Stronger Everyday.

Date eh? Go Chri!!! The guy obviously has great taste.

Welll, I do have moe faves, but it could grow to be a pretty long list! As far as intrumentels, I'd say a lot of beethoven peices (like the 5th of course) and the soundtrack to 'Superman' is obviously a great one.

 

Sorry about the 'flopity flop' date, us guys try are best, but sometimes just don't get it right.

Re: mind tricks to get motivated
no no....  i wouldn't lump this guy into your category.  this guy was especially unique, for lack of a better word.  I think he might have had some loose marbles up there.  sleazy, but guiless, so you kinda feel sorry for him.

Re: mind tricks to get motivated
Why do I have the feeling that whenever I read from you, there's always a rant about TAXES? Aren't those supposed to be done once per year? Lol.. yeah, you've got some explaining to do here..

The Rocky soundtrack.. lol.. man, great sound! I definitely agree with the pumped up feeling. It does work! A song from the movie Lost In Translation, "Are u awake?" by Jim Shields wakes me up. Jack Johnson makes me feel emotionally strong, The Pussycat Dolls make me feel emotionally weak.. classical music relaxes me into sleep, and psychedelic trance makes me jump around!

I wonder if there's such thing as "the right beat to listen to while doing taxes"..
