I’ve been the jealous type for a long time. I find that it has made me less likely to evolve. I’m not jealous of guys. I’ve been more likely to be jealous of the musical achievements of others. Its basically what’s kept me from getting better at music over the years. I see a direct connection to jealousy and failure. So, about 2 years ago, I decided that I wanted to join them not beat them. Here I am much happier than ever. I credit the love put into what I do with there being more energy to spend on the positive. I used to be super jealous of Maroon 5. Met Adam and Jessie at the R and R Hall of Fame and now I love those guys and want them to always do great things. The guy I really let get to me was John Mayer. Man, I wanted what that guy was achieving and now that I’ve had a chance to hang with him and see how great he is at what he does, I truly only want great things for him because he really is a crazy talented musician and an ultra smart dude. Yea, there may be one or two others that I still need to love instead of envy but I’m trying AND learning. Happy to be where I am right now. That other place is way lonelier.
