There is a big difference between individual and relational energy, but it is best is when they are blended.

Music is taking someone else on a sonic trip. And even yourself too as a musician performing.

I keep my notes on whiteboards and then I take pictures of them and print them out and put them in manila folders. I'm weird this way.

I like this idea because you can always be a performer you don't need to stage a performance to do this. It just becomes part of your personality in how you relate to everyone, but it is not fake either.

I'm finding that as the masculine you want to be relaxed, playful, and confident.

Have you guys tried Obsidian? I tried to use that and it was not that user friendly.

I think I know what you mean. The audience is there to be taken on a trip by the performer.

You can have your cake and eat it too. There is no duality between the finite and the Infinite.

Um Hm. You used the word dictator not me.

You guys don't know anything about dating lol.

That is flimsy. If I haven't talked to someone usually I don't know who I'm talking to.

Oh yeah? Who are you?

Maybe I have.

I'm trying. I'm working on relationship. Thank you. I'm not an expert in this area at all.

You will meet people you are attracted to. It is scary in a way. You almost don't know what to do with it.

I think it is important to know how to do dating without a lot of nonsense.

Yes. Artforms are created around shared tropes.

@Human Mint What I learned is you practice different things at different times as a musician. One underrated thing to practice is listening to a lot of music. The last 6 months I was really working on chords and scales. Now I am not. I go thru phases in what I focus on.

This is well said. The only thing I would maybe think thru more is the idea that you need to be a dictator. There is also a give and take energetically between performer and audience.

Must be super awkward for the women approached.

What does it mean to cold approach someone exactly?

This is why I asked. It seems ridiculous to me too. Like who would do this lol.

Has anyone here actually tried to cold approach someone?
