Summer is here


Tokyo is super hot these days because of summer.

Busy these days with business related things and I was just reflecting on how grateful I am for where I am today.

Also a colleague of mine gave me a book about a Japanese startup that was very successful creating a unique e-commerce service.

It reminded me of the days when I tried to get my own business to thrive and wow was that a challenge in so many ways.

Now that my focus is on music in my life, I don't think I'd go back to that entrepreneur life style immediately but I do miss the excitement and pressure sometimes.

One of the things I miss most is teaching.    Business-wise, it wasn't very profitable when I was teaching myself. But it was the most rewarding work outside of music that I have ever done.

There was something in common with music, where you put your life and soul into creating and communicating to enrich someone's life. It was about empowering others to be successful or happy.

I love that aspect about anything I do.
