When it comes to moving to NYC, I would say it's always great to live in NYC for awhile for the experience, but I'll quote advice from the old piece "Wear Sunscreen" ... "Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard." I lived in NYC and found this pretty accurate.

Hi Thao. I admire your music so much and I’ve loved reading your posts. Personally, I’ve found that the best way to stay on task is to write out my daily goals and post it in a location I can’t avoid. I have a chalkboard in a prominent spot. It feels good to erase things off of it once they are completed. It also reminds me to prep for the things I need to do that day. I also set alarms on my phone. Just make sure your schedule is flexible enough that you can still be spontaneous and do things just because you want to do them. Otherwise, your schedule will fail like a strict diet often fails.

Much love to you! You’ve got this!!

Tammy thanks so much and thank you for your kind words! This sounds like a great method and now I am looking for chalkboards! :)

Curious: Why would you want to go to bed at 5pm? Even great-grandparents go to bed at 7.

Perhaps sometimes I have the world-weariness of great- great-grandparents 😅😢
