I haven’t posted here in a bit, but I’m still doing the music thing outside my product work and family life.

I don’t know about you, but I need that outlet. It’s not a “hustle”, it’s not for the money. It’s a passion I’ve cultivated for decades. Something that’s purely creative and cathartic. Without the outside influence of anyone. I can still ask for feedback, but I own every single creative decision made in my music.

Yeah, I guess it’s a bit of an ego thing, but I assume this is also why founders found companies.

I also think it makes me a better product builder.

I was in a weird headspace tonight, right before the work week, so I came downstairs and improvised on the piano for a bit. It helped.

What do you have as an outlet for you?
