I was introduced to the idea of ‘non-negotiables’ on the podcast ‘Entrepreneur On Fire’. The idea is simple, make a list of things that you feel are super important to you and your goals and happiness. It could be exercise or meditation for example.
For me, it’s writing music.
Once you have chosen your non-negotiables, agree with yourself to do those things first, before everything else. You don’t just do this from time to time, you do it every single (working) day.
So for me, that looks like writing a piece of music as the first thing I do when I sit down at my desk in the morning.
Why do this?
Sometimes life or busy work get in the way.
Just think how many times you have thought, “Oh yes, I am going to do X today, oh but first I’ve got to reply to some emails”
Before you know it, your X has been completely forgotten.
So today as my non-negotiable I am writing some Dungeon Synth for my project ‘Dryad’s Grove’
You can listen to the finished album here ⤵️
As per usual, I have recorded the whole process of creating the track so you can see me at work, no secrets kept here 👍🏻
If you have any questions about making Dungeon Synth please do let me know
Thanks for reading The Diary of a Music Maker!
