Do you listen music while you work?

I do. And I need to admit that I always try to listen music. Always when I can. I listen music, when I wake up, when I shave, when I bath, when I go in the bus to University, when I walk, and definately when I work.

As my favourite music is hip-hop, I always try to listen to it, as much as I can. I try to understand the words, feel the pronunciation of rapper and his mood. I have a lot of favourite artists and I do not want to mention all them here, cuz it will be long list.

When I do mechanical work, I listen to hip-hop. But when I do intellectual work, hip-hop is impossible to listen. I invest my mind resources in understanding text and it makes me work not so productive. So, I choose nice music without words -- esp. dance and hip-hop instrumentals. I like David Guetta, Tiesto, Sinclair, Paul Van Dyke and lot of others not so famous DJs.

So, this is my choice. One more thing I am really curious about is online radio. It is a great tool. You listen to the music you like and do not have to think about downloading it. Personally, I like Russian on-line radio -- 101.ru . They have "NRJ RnB/Rap". "Russian Rap", "NRJ Dance", "Office Lounge -- soundtrack for successful business", so I really like that. We can also mention Last FM, it is also great thing to use.

I invite you to think about music in your life, as Robin Sharma said: "Music makes our life much-much better". And I agree with him.

The new trimestr has started and new subjects were launched. Now I have more free learning and some interesting projects to work with in this trimestr. I am constanly working on my manager skills and I must admit that I feel some nice results. As I've listened to Manager-Tools podcast (manager-tools.com), it was said there that the main work of manager is: "Think. Decide. Communicate." Think about it.

During my crazy weekend I had a very important event -- meeting with one of most famous rappers in Ukraine -- Vova Zi Lvova, his site is www.vovazilvova.com and I made interview with him. And then we had a nice chat for 1 hour about his life and hip-hop in general. I must admit that Vova is very open and simple person with great worldview. It is so nice to see that we think alike, cause Vova also knows a lot about personal development, goals, vision, self-improvement and all this stuff.

Soon you can read this interview on uaformat.com and for now I want to say big respect to you for visiting my blog.

Stay tuned.
