Follow Your Passion, maybe not
This might be somewhat dangerous. Following your passions makes you vulnerable to a sales pitch. Do what you like, but don’t be a slave to your passions.

Load the equipment...

Thoughts and feelings
I have noticed that people often confuse thoughts with feelings. People say “i feel like a hamburger.” That really isn’t a feeling, the feeling is probably hunger.
People say “I feel like he doesn’t respect me.” That really isn’t a feeling, it’s a thought that might lead to a very unpleasant feeling.

Relationship Insites
From my experience, the last thing you want to do is share your feelings with your girlfriend, no matter how much she says she wants to know them. She doesn’t really want to know and will not understand anyway. She may find them repulsive. The best case scenario is she will use your words later to club you with. What to do? Watch some popular TV shows, Sex and the City, Desperate HOusewivES,...

Female Vocalist
I am always looking for a female vocalist to work with, but when I get with one, they drive me crazy. I think it takes a balance of assertiveness and supportiveness, the supportiveness not being one of my strong suits. And assertiveness with women, is still a challenge for me. I read a book about birth order that said it might be from having an older sister. Who knows.
