WHY? So I can use my life playing music, my time is invested into something I love. To deepen my connection with Music, building a relationship with it. Work that I am excited about, fulfills me and beings me joy. Creative work that is meaningful and impactful. To escape the toxic, mindless, repetitive, dirty, unhealthy, and meaningless work I do now. I have a bigger potential to impact others, with music, conversations, wise words, listening, questions, melody, and so on. I can make a difference in others lives with my music, for example, a musician that struggles to write melodies, not only will I create beautiful, unique melodies for him/them/her, but I can also show them how to do it themselves. Higher pay potential depending on How I Market myself. How I Hone my niche to the core. How I Serve others How I Create value for others. How many people I serve. How authentic I am How hard I Work How much I work. How well I strategize How clear my vision is. How big of a client base I create. I get to make a contribution to something I am passionate about. MUSIC! To see what I am capable of. How hard can I work? How well can I serve others? How much money can I earn? How well can I handle my finances? How responsible can I become Who will I become? How will I change? Who will I need to be to be a successful music producer? To be my own boss To set my own schedule. I can develop multiple skills. Music production Mixing. Mastering. Melody. Groove. Singing. People skills. Communication Listening. Asking high quality questions. Marketing skills. How to build a website. How to attract attention. How to create a remarkable product. How to stand out. Sales skills. How to sell my services. How to close. Authenticity skills. How to navigate client/business relationships. Staying true to my values. A sense of purpose. Created Authentic Real Meaningful (created) Direction My passion for music. I get to help other peoples visions be realized. I get to collaborate with others. I can influence and impact others with my being and Music. Make my own schedule. I get to take time off whenever I want for as long as I need (if I have played the financial game right) New contacts. Meaningful connections Friends Musicians. Exposure and experience Work from Anywhere. I get to be an "Expert" in my field.

Here is my overview for how I plan to do this. Be crystal clear WHY I want this. Find a problem I am passionate about solving. Do tons of research to deeply understand the field. How to become a successful Freelance Music Producer Reading/studying success stories Reading/studying what can go wrong. Read over notes from "Small business success." synthesize a unique, innovative way to solve this problem that utilizes my strengths and values. Build a emotionally compelling vision, connected to my life purpose. Build a website/profile on Fiverr. Remarkable Professional Authentic. Build Gigs that solve said problem. Price it very low, making it a no-brainer for my first clients. Go above and beyond, applying work ethic, excellence, customer service, and wisdom (all strengths) Build a catalog of 5 star reviews. Once I have more work than I can handle, raise prices. Traps I am aware of. Not doing enough research. Talking to others about it, without taking action. Distraction getting caught up in busy work, losing sight of the big picture. Getting caught up with my dreams and big picture, losing sight of the dollars and cents. Overworking myself.

Here are the fears I face. 1. Fear of being Judged, ridiculed, called weird, made fun of. 2. Fear of the responsibility it will take to succeed. 3. Fear that I will mess it up somehow. 4. Fear that I am not creative enough to find a way to serve people in a way that adds TONS of value. 5. Fear of succeeding, becoming financially free, helping people, and "making it." 6. Fear that I have chosen the wrong thing. 7. Fear that will never succeed. 8. Fear that no one will want my services. 9. Fear that I am not good enough, my strengths aren't strong enough. 10. Fear that I will not strategize enough, do enough research. 11. Fear that I will be too impractical. 12. fear that I will get into paralysis by analysis. 13. Fear that I will quit when it gets to hard.

I’ve noticed I am much more tolerant to psychedelics than most. It can take anywhere from 3-5x the recommended dose to get expected effects. For example. The experience of 5 grams of Magic Mushrooms seems similar to 1.5-2 based on how others talk about it. Or, 60 mg of DMT seems closer to the effect of 15-20 for others. Any advice?

Howdy Doo! Glad to meet another Musician. Thanks for making the time for this thoughtful response. Glad you have found so much inspiration and meaning in music therapy! Stumbled across Music Therapy last year, it excited me to think about Music in terms of Therapy, but it didn't feel 100% authentic. I am wary of already created paths, getting a degree doesn't resonate for me. Nor do I want to perform music in clinical/therapy settings. I want to forge a new path in the music industry, to be a successful independent artist that creates music that thousands and millions of people are drawn to. A star, A leader, an innovator, a visionary for how music can evolve society. Not because I am special, but because of how this music will impact humanity. Playing unique and innovative music to show others/myself how to be authentic is music is my heart. AMAZING. I was fuzzily aware that such studies existed, but that's awesome that there is so much. For you, the science behind how music effects psychology, why is that inspiring? Thanks for the info, great to meet another passionate musician, out to make their mark on the world it the way they find most meaningful. Love and Honesty, keep it up -
Thank you!

You’re definitely on the right track. Mixing and mastering is a huge part of my music making process. It is heavily electronic. Thanks for the perspective -

Thanks for this advice, I’ll check out the Documentary. Producing for others is just a way to gain more experience for me, long term vision includes producing, mixing, mastering, and performing all original music. That is a good point though, to have a portfolio I can show to those I do want to produce for. -
Some of the top questions on Authenticity: If you haven't noticed, its my top value What is Authenticity? What are the principles or Authenticity? How can I tell when I am being authentic? What is an Authentic, Heart Desire? What is the difference between an authentic desire and an inauthentic desire? How do I become more authentic? How do I connect with my authenticity deeper? Why is Authenticity Important to me? What authentic activities am I NOT doing? What am I? Who am I?

Love.

What is the Authentic path? Its a chosen direction, its unknown at the start, IT is faith that this step is bringing one closer to Truth, its a search for for Uniqueness, for Sincerity and genuineness of Being. To BE with Self with open arms, not always successfully, but choosing to Love that which is. It is choosing to do things in a new way, even if it means making a fool out of ones self. It's facings the following. Uncertainty. Fear. Bias. Rejection. Love. Self. Not-Knowing. The Shadow. Darkness. Blinding light. Unconsciousness. Truth. Falsehood. Lies. Cultural Programing. Beliefs. The past. Memories. Trauma. Heart Desires. Embarrassment. Difficult Emotions. God. the Authentic Path is different for each individual, for those who choose it, it brings Everything, and Nothing. it leads everywhere and nowhere. the greatest breakthroughs, heartbreak, emptiness, sadness, joy and everything in between. Why be authentic? its harder to be honest and sincere than it is to dishonest and fake. Maybe. Maybe that's only one perspective. I would argue that an authentic life IS the easiest life, however, it may take DECADES, for that to be true. What is the Authentic Path? It is Love.

Oh good I wasn’t the only one ?

These are some good questions, granted, I have not contemplated them deeply, so I will answer as truthfully as I can. 1. For me personally, intuition is more important than logic. Not to say that Logic doesn't have its place, it does! but the biggest decisions, the most impactful paths I've tread, were made with Intuition, and Logic was almost a secondary order to "make sense" of the intuitive move. Plus, Intuition, that inner guidance, is really authentic, which is my top value, so I will side with Intuition, gut feel, and "hunches" with logic in the passengers side, to grab the wheel if I lose control. Also: Building a life around intuition is something I desire, and something I am working towards, but not something that is 100% actualized for me. 2. Both. 3. I find that intuition doesn't need to defend its positions. Logic feels the need to find a reason for being. 4. I can, but that's me, maybe its different for others. 5. That's hard to say. For example, Jesus, if he existed, I would guess, was hyper intuitive and conscious. Those who created Christianity, tried to make sense of his teachings, using logic. Maybe, I could be wrong too

Is this True for you? -
Not a writer in the classical sense, but a musician and lyricist. Happy to read/hear what comes to you, feel free to DM me with whatever you want reviewed.

Love your articulation of your experience. I have a similar setup, using 200 mesh SS, with the same RDA, but an Aegis Mini for the Mod. Works just like you said. How do you like the 400 Mesh? does it drip down the edges of the mesh at all?

Yes! DMT is a form of "revealing what's actually there." For Sober me it may be sub/unconscious, but still feel it, just not knowing what IT is. Love that! I really resonate with how you articulated that. "light existential terror" beautifully said. For me the DMT love is a.. Rough love, like being hugged by a whale. Or sat on by a panda ? or shoved off a cliff of fear while at the same time feeling oddly safe. That everything will be/is okay. Glad you're WILLING to experience those traumas, when did you start intentionally processing them?

Interesting, Why do you say that? -

Love it, thanks for sharing! -
Thank you for reading along It was amazing to cry, to weep, to really FEEL the sadness and pain I have been running from for so long. With as high a tolerance that I have, even then that was a lot. What is your mindset as you approach DMT?

Interesting topic! much to ponder. Here are my results. Rational Ability = 23 / 50 Rational Engagement = 48 / 50 Experiential Ability = 48 / 50 Experiential Engagement = 35 / 50
