What’s your favorite music when you’re training, working or relaxing?
Today I wanted to take a break from the training stuff and some of the deeper lifestyle stuff I’ve been talking about.
I was just working on a project a few hours ago and I had my iTunes going in the background. It was on shuffle and I kept having to switch a bunch of the songs so I started thinking about how I can’t do certain things with certain music playing.
When I’m writing I need it super quiet. If I’m doing something kinda creative I can have some music but it has to be mellow. If I’m working out my tastes can really vary. When I’m in the car I always play country music.
Here are some of my favorite songs and artists depending on what I’m doing….
