Some key points:

  • Follow the point of enthusiasm (follow your  bliss)
  • Finding your own path
  • Notice what makes you excited 
  • Writing more impressionistically as not to impose a lyric on a scene
  • Don’t ask who you want to be but who are you
  • Getting over your emotional wall in the biz 
  • What gets in your way to success
  • Figure out your blocks
