This song couldn’t be more appropriate right now. I succeeded the 50/90 challenge. That is to say I successfully wrote 50 songs in 90 days and I actually reached the target in 85 days. I finished the last song today. In fact the last two songs took about half an hour to come up with and record.

So now my family visit to rural, Southern Thailand (as shown in the picture) is set up nicely. I will not have to worry about whether I will be able to get that elusive last song written when I get back home on the last official day of the challenge. I can immerse myself in 3 days of real Thai culture. I feel so good about myself I can’t begin to put it into words.

This is a bit of a rush post too. I have been so caught up in completing the challenge and working hell-for-leather on recording my album I almost forgot to update The WSC! I am supposed to be in bed getting rested for a long drive early in the morning, but I just realized that I hadn’t posted this week’s song and if I missed doing that I would miss my first weekly deadline to date and that is just not acceptable. In fact soon or in the new year, I haven’t decided yet, I will be upping the ante at The WSC, but I won’t divulge all the details yet until I have a very clear mission statement of that. It seems only right to raise the bar after blowing all my goals and targets in the area of songwriting out of the water. I don’t think I have ever obliterated a target goal like this before. Thanks to the 50/90 challenge and all those involved. Now my profile page on the challenge proudly shows the word WINNER. I like that

The price of this small success of mine has been a temporary dip in health. I think I suffered some lack of sleep and I have an ear infection and feel very drained physically. Emotionally however I am really on fire and that reminds me to also thank my wife for her continuous support and belief in me. I love you teerak!

On a Roll
No "meaningful" message this week. I’ll spare you the lectures. I’m going to take this opportunity if I may to bask in my own glory and feel pleased with myself. Sorry I’ll be back to normal next week In the meantime get on a roll. It’s really easy to do. Don’t think about it, just get into something you really love and it will happen. Just make sure you get your sleep!

Quick thanks to a couple of folks, who have helped inspire me with ideas during the last three months.

Enjoy!
