If you are like me, you believe there are two different types of people in the world.
It works for *just* about everything:
Dog vs. Cat
Hot dogs vs. hamburgers
Ketchup vs. Mustard
….
Silence vs. Background noise while you work
Yup. I believe that *most* of the time you are either a “quiet as a mouse” worker or someone that “needs a little jam” in the room to get your shizz done.
When it boils down to it? I LOVE the quiet.
If I am working on copy that is going to make my clients some serious cash you can bet that that only sound you will hear is the typing of my keyboard or a pen scratching on paper (yes, I handwrite it all first!). There is nothing quite like the silence surrounding you and you focus on your thoughts and just let creativity FLOW. gah. freaking. AWESOME.
In fact, it is silent while I write this now… ironic, right?
But! There are times that require music. Sound. Where you would go crazy if you were stuck alone without some noise to help get the creative juices flowing. Some revving to your engine. For that, I ALWAYS turn to Amazon Prime Music because well… it’s included in my account.
I figured I would share some of my favorite stations and my top Amazon Prime Music Recommendations that I have gotten me through late nights and early mornings.
When you Need to Get Pumped Up: Pop to Make You Feel Better
When Work is Important but You Still are Feeling Chill: Summer Vibes
When Your Kids are in the Room: Kidz Bop
When You Need to Focus and Are Feeling Super Smart: Classical Focus
When You are Ready to Sing Along and Pretend You Have Skills: Best of Adele
These are just a few that I turn to when I need to jam out and get work done.
What about you?
Are you a music person when you are nose deep in work?
What are you listening to?
