婚姻幸福 Jeremy Hsiang之家

song writer是很重要的, 如果全世界一個寫歌者都沒有的話,
所有音樂產業的人, 包括所有的唱片公司, 某些從不寫歌的製作人, 經紀公司 全部都得去喝西北風.
所有的song writer都是很有價值的


即使是沒那麼有名的我們也是一樣.
一直覺得, 創作者應該懂得疼惜自己, 多尊重自己一點.
有些事可以說YES, 有些事必須說NO.

當個職業創作者的第一步就是了解自己應享的權利.
yes, part of the professionalism is KNOWING YOUR LEGAL RIGHT

除非我們自己同意, 不然沒有人可以把我們的價值矮化.
為了出頭的機會而做出一些妥協,
跟過去舔決策者的懶趴 (對不起, 我好粗俗><)
是有差別的.

如果連你自己都不尊重自己, 那別人不尊重你也不會只是剛好而已
