I am organized ( by necessity) at work and home, but not with my guitar playing. A friend is always after me to "finish some of those songs you write" because I seldom get one done from beginning to end. I have loads of fun 'noodling' and will investigate new things energetically.



Advice?
I've always been pretty organic about remembering stuff I'm writing: If I remember it tomorrow, that means it's a good enough idea to work from again.

If I don't remember it, I don't care.

Survival of the fittest, so to speak.

It weeds out the noodles, most of the time.
