#9 – Videos are Awesome

Self-Defined Human Podcast ·

2020/11/12

Question: I'm nervous to post videos on social media. You should be nervous about it, because people might not be happy with what you're doing. I have a bunch of videos where I talk about things, experiences I've had, or sometimes just calling out people. I'm nervous to post that stuff. That does not make me comfortable to post those things. I have one video where I talk about a fantasy I have about going back to school and just confronting the teacher when the teacher asks me if I did my

2020/11/01

Meditation is the only way to fix your music technique. Too bad music teachers don’t care and only want to screw you over. Oh, and I found some great new freedom while recording this episode. Hope you enjoy. Don’t tell your teacher!

I’m not going to go into too many specific details about this, because I don’t want to get sued or anything like that. This is about radical acceptance. This is about toxic positivity. So, what do I have against piano
