I have been listening to music since the 8th grade. Back then, I didn’t have a smartphone—just a slide-screen Samsung phone that felt outdated even at the time. Still, I would store every new song I liked on it and play them on repeat throughout the day.
The Power of Inspiration
Inspiration is different from motivation. When you're truly inspired, even the smallest details become profound. Ordinary objects start to feel extraordinary. In today’s fast-paced world, filled with endless noise and stress, music offers an escape. You can put on your headphones anytime, anywhere, and suddenly, a wave of soothing and exhilarating emotions rushes through you, transporting you to a different world.
A World Without Genre Limits
I don’t confine myself to a single genre. While I naturally lean toward alternative rock and pop, I also explore sounds that people wouldn’t expect me to enjoy. Some might even question my choices—"How can this guy listen to this all day?"—but to me, every track is a gem for my mind.
Music has the power to make you smile at a stranger, take you back to a specific moment in the past, and evoke emotions you thought were long forgotten. That’s one of the things I love most about it—not everyone experiences music this way, but for those who do, it’s truly magical.
My Ritual with Music
Every evening, I spend about 20 minutes walking after dinner, and I always save the best song of the day for that time. It has helped me overcome anxiety, reduce stress, and immerse myself in an imaginative world where I feel like I can take on anything. There’s an indescribable excitement in those moments.
You can create a playlist for every mood—sadness, anger, adventure, nostalgia—the list is endless. Knowing exactly which track to play for a particular emotion can be a powerful tool for inspiration and self-reflection.
The Beauty in Every Note
For me, music isn’t just about the lyrics or the melody; it’s about the entire experience. I notice every instrument, every transition, every background voice. Sometimes, I discover a song I truly love once in a month or two, and when I do, I can listen to it non-stop for two days without getting tired of it.
There are moments when a single transition or tune in a song becomes so addictive that I don’t want to overplay it—I want to savor it. Instead of skipping directly to that part, I listen to the entire song just to fully appreciate that one perfect moment.
The Artistry Behind Music
When you're deeply inspired, you start wondering—How do these artists create such beautiful effects with such perfect timing? That’s the magic of their craft. They feel the music at a deeper level, and that's why their emotions are so raw and powerful during live performances. Their expressions, movements, and energy are all part of the story they are telling through their music.
Music has been an integral part of my life. It has shaped my emotions, my memories, and my ability to navigate the world around me. No matter how overwhelming life gets, music always brings me back to a place of inspiration.
