Well said Willie! http://performingsongwriter.com/willie-nelson-interview/Is there anything you have to say to aspiring songwriters? If you’re willing to really carve into yourself and spit it out, I think you’ve got a better chance of succeeding. I think a lot of songs are just … the substance is really not there. You can tell that somebody’s writing for a publishing company just because he’s on salary. But, if you can carry a little bit of yourself off and put it in there, people can feel it, and see it and I think that’s the biggest key to being a good songwriter: not being afraid to put yourself into it. Tell it like it is and don’t try to sugar coat it a lot.

"Defeatist Pessimists and Rose Colored Glasses Optimists are lonely companions, victims even. Both ideologies imply predestined outcomes, and therefore breed inactivity in its victims. Inaction is the only sure way to lose at anything in life. All positive action guarantees at least a fighting chance." -Brian Austin Whitney
