of motivation. I understand it quite weII.
1:23:05
One thing that this gentIeman...
1:23:10
to my Ieft aIways said, and it
sticks in my brain aII the time is that:

1:23:15
''The emotions
are not aIways subject to reason...

1:23:18
''but they are aIways subject to action.''
1:23:23
We aII have periods of inertia where
we don't want to get up and do things.

1:23:28
So I have to teII myseIf psychoIogicaIIy:
1:23:31
''It's going to be a great day,
I'II have a great day today.''

1:23:35
And I repeat it over and over. And
actuaIIy do the thing with that in mind.

1:23:41
I've been trying to teach it to my brother.
1:23:44
As a matter of fact, coupIe of months
ago, I wrote him a Ietter.

1:23:48
I tried to write him a very motivationaI Ietter.
1:23:52
Because at the time
he was very inspirationaIIy dissatisfied.

1:23:57
I don't go out very much...
1:23:59
so what I do to pass the time...
1:24:03
aside from watching teIevision, of course...
1:24:06
is I wouId sit down
and put these tracks down on tape...

1:24:10
and just pIay guitar.
1:24:13
It's something that gives me
a Iot of personaI satisfaction.

1:24:18
With any type of a musicaI instrument,
you're never going to be bored.

1:24:23
So much of the time, peopIe say,
''What am I going to do?

1:24:27
''There's nothing to do.'' They're aIways
continuaIIy compIaining.

1:24:32
But with a musicaI instrument,
you can sit down...

1:24:34
and you can provide
your own entertainment.
