So I have been inspired to spend some time working on samples of music to show what I am able to create. Samples instead of complete pieces seem like the way to go in my busy life. Here are three reasons why you should write at least one thing a day even if it is super short(above each is a sample of mine).

1. Creativity is something that needs to be exercised. Making short concise music forces you to focus on just the creative side.
2. Problem solving needs to be a speedy process. If you are going to be efficient with music making you must solve problems quickly. The ability to set up, create, record, and upload in a short time prepares you to be ready when that commission or opportunity comes.

3. Nike. You need to do it. The longer it is, the more complete you think it must be, the less likely you will actually do it.
So go on. Write something tonight. Tomorrow. Who cares if it is bad. Your exercising.
