Catch that inspiration and grind like there's no tomorrow. Procrastination is creativity's biggest enemy in my experience. Thinking I can leave something until tomorrow and finding myself without the inspiration the next day sucks.
Man I'm a victim of that procrastination shyt all day. shyt is sad :snoop:

take advantage of the times when you're most motivated..

i know for me they tend to come at bad times like the day before a job interview or when i have to work early or do something important...those are the days i'm up at like 5am writing some magic like its nothing
:salute: Respect, I definitely agree with that.

make as many tracks as possible then listen through and chose the best 10-20...or come up with a theme then base your tracks around it :manny:

themes are dope. but if you have trouble doing themes just release compilation beat tapes. i remember listening to beat tapes from various people who were in the game, but no dre, timbaland, pharrel/neptunes status circa 2003ish and just remembering the downloads where shyt was literally track 1, track 2, beat 1 , beat 2. to now where beats have names...shyts crazy

Try to envision the final product before you really get to work so you know your goal and sound off rip
