Self Hypnosis

Thursday, October 15th, 2026. Um, and I'm sure I've spoken about this before, but the reason why I actually started, you know, my daily reflection series is because Um, ultimately, I just wanted to put myself in a position where I gave myself a job to do. I gave myself a task to complete every single day as a rap artist.

One of the most challenging things to, um, you know, for me to wrap my head around and I feel like just for anyone really and truthfully to get into music, to wrap their head around is essentially just how, you know, how vast, um, freedom, how much freedom we get, when, um, we begin to transition into these sort of things, um, full time, if that makes sense. 

Like, you know, the idea, we always become enamoured with the idea of like, you know, ditching our 9 to 5s and jumping into like, uh, you know, these, you know, these, these music situations. 

But one thing that I started to become frightened of very much in the beginning was how there was no script and there was no routine to what I was doing. 

So it's like again, you know, as much as I despise, like, you know, working sometimes, like having a job, like, you know, the whole idea of clocking in and clocking out. 

I started very quickly realising that if I don't have, like, you know, discipline, if I don't have, like, you know, something to do every single day, then music just remains exactly what it is, like, you know, just a hobby. 

And, uh, you know, I just wanted to start doing something to, again, to begin to cultivate discipline, into hardwire my brain into doing something systematically every single day. 

So that's actually like the true origin story behind my daily reflections. I did kind of become romanticised. I did romanticise the idea of also being able to create a means by which, like, you know, fans can engage with me. 

So like, you know, if I leave something behind every day, it's always an opportunity for someone to engage with me. 

But, um, you know, fundamentally, like it was just to give myself something monotonous, even though I don't find it monotonous now, like I'm giving myself something to do every day so that I can begin to discipline myself and recognise that every single day I have tasks that I need to accomplish. It's my humble journey towards entrepreneurship.
