Don’t you just love it when you talk to yourself in a dream? I guess one of the keys is – do you (or more importantly "I") listen?

• Last night’s first dream had to do with music. A guitar player with a group of singers. Things weren’t coming together very well for the group and I was there coaching them. I asked them to start over with one of their songs. The guitarist started playing so softly that it was hard to get a balance with the vocals. One young gal started trying to sing but didn’t have the breath control to produce a resonant sound that quietly, the others just started walking out of the room. I watched this for about 3 minutes and finally stopped them bringing up three points. First, the solo singer never asked the guitarist to play any louder to help her so that she could sing in a better "space". Second, the singers that walked out of the room were never going to get anywhere if they weren’t willing to stay in the game and at least start – abdicating doesn’t move them forward and finally the guitarist – even though he is playing beautifully will never sound good in the group when he’s trying to do his own thing regardless of what the others are doing.

I don’t know exactly what music has to do with anything because I’m not performing anywhere – haven’t for over a year but I do know that it’s about starting, starting where I am right now and making the most of the "group" abilities.

That’s all that anyone can really ask of you or me. Just START.
