Music is the movement of sound to reach the soul for the education of its virtue.

— Plato

CREATIVITY

WHAT THIS MEANS

Certain things get into you underneath argument. A piece of music can rearrange your mood in thirty seconds without making a single claim, which means whatever you listen to repeatedly is shaping something in you whether or not you approve. The same goes for what you watch, what you read, and what you hear people around you say all day.

Look at what has been playing in the background of your life lately. Ask what it has been training you to feel. Then change one item deliberately and see whether anything shifts over a fortnight.
