The Drive To 2011

Why am I here and who am I? Those are questions I have asked myself, and can only assume are questions that all or near all of us ask.

I am a musician and my pursue in life thus far has been to play music professionally while I'm here. I have often pondered to myself should I be doing other things, are there other things I should be pursuing instead of music? Having thoughts of doubt has distracted me from the discipline and joy I want in my life. In order to remove these negative distractions I am now on The Drive To 2011.

The Drive To 2011 is my focus on utilizing my potential for doing positive and quality acts to myself and others between now and January 1, 2011. The Drive To 2011 falls under Four guiding principles:

1. There is no correlation between Quantitative and Qualitative Acts.

2. Any Qualitative Act effects others; and has a ripple effect.

3. As long as you yourself do Qualitative Acts you will positively effect people; and as long as there is life there is the chance for Qualitative Acts.

4. As long as there is life there is Hope.

My perspective given these principles and personal expression is a qualitative leap inwards expands outward towards others. I am driven to utilize my potential to create a more positive world for myself, those around me, and hopefully everyone. The Drive is my attempt to bring abstract thinking to a concrete world.

I believe through music I can have a huge impact in creating qualitative acts, and leave a positive effect on others, which in turn will increase the chance of more qualitative acts towards even more people. Thus as long as I do good acts there is hope, but first in order to utilize my potential for good acts I have to feel good about myself. This has taken me a long time to do, but I'm finally at the point where I feel good within and am ready to redirect that goodness externally as well as internally. The Drive To 2011 is my life now and my desire to create more hope in an increasingly hopeless world.

Profound, simply and complexly, your words give me hope. I have been dispirited by, what seems to be, this field of negative energy that I can not escape. I have always given of myself, and promoted the deep magic of imagination and inspiration, and I started to feel that "the logical" started making more sense. Thanks!
