Talent/Self discipline

I spent much of Saturday - Earth Day - at the Red Cup folk music show featuring BuffaloFitz, Bridgewater and others.

I had something I wanted to say about talent and self-discipline here, but I can't quite get it to come together. Both are necessary to succeed in the arts. By success, I don't mean fame – just success in terms of being satisfied with one's own level of accomplishment, being good enough at a chosen art that one gets some satisfaction out of it.

But what I wanted to say about that isn't coming together for me right now. I'm ready for bed.

I'll be up again in a few hours. Maybe it will come to me then.
