Hey, everyone, Adam Mattis here, and today is the final day of our best of week here at the You'll hear at podcast.

We're having a great time, Aaron, some of these great conversations from our archive. Today's episode is all about

motivation. These were some inspiring conversations that occurred kind of in the first half of

the You'll Hear at Run here. But stay tuned next week. We're going to start season two officially

of the You'll Hear at podcast. Just want to give a big shout out to everybody who listens and everybody who,

who participates and writes in and leaves voicemails and leaves ratings and reviews.

You all are what makes this podcast go, and we really, really appreciate hearing from you.

Really, really appreciate all the love.

So hope you enjoy today's episode on motivation.

Well, maybe the key is to making sure that we are taking on the right jazz information,

you know, and then we don't have to worry as much about getting overwhelmed with too

much. There's never too much of a good thing, but I think that there is the pacing of it and there

is the right thing. We're living in an age now where there's just an overload of all kinds of

information, so I think we need to regulate that. We need to, and we can with self-discipline,

you know, control how much information we have coming in.

The tricky part is with jazz is there's so much great music, there's so many great recordings,

there's so many great things going on now, live and being streamed and on people's websites

and on Facebook.

I mean, this is some great, this is a golden age for jazz information for sure.

So, but we have to have the discipline to limit what we have coming in.

So one way I can think of that I like to do is just limit myself to what I'm actually

working on.
