difficult

"Anything worth doing is going to take a bit of work." I don't know if that's a saying or not. I'm not sure I've ever heard it said that way or if I were to google it how many hits I'd get, but it sure seems to prove true in my life.

I try to be a good husband...takes a listening ear and focused attention
I want to be a good guitar player...that's taking some practice time.
I try to be a good employee...takes at least a good 45 hours a week.
I try to be a good Dad...takes extended periods of time playing with and teaching the kids.
I am trying to finish my basement...it's taken the last 3 months and I'm like only a third of the way done.
I am...there's a long list.

Tonight I spent about an hour with Pro Tools trying to figure out how to use the drum loops that came with it...I've done it in Garage Band 100 times but pro tools seems a bit more difficult (its probably easy and I'm just making it hard). When I finally do get the hang of it I'll be able to make some pretty sweet music projects on my own, but as of tonight it's been a lot of hard work with nothing to show for it.

It's worth doing...or it will be.
