“Mistakes
are proof
that you’re trying.”
‘Mistakes’ are stepping-stones in our lives
so that we can become
the best version of ourselves.
Each ‘error’ reminds us
that we are
alive and taking part in life itself.
Mistakes are like feedback,
we ‘see’,
we ‘listen’ and
‘learn’ from each one.
It is 'how' we respond to those mistakes
that will help us to either go forwards into our futures
or just not move.
As in every subject we study,
we have to make mistakes
to learn to get things right.
This also ‘ripens’
our creativity and innovation.
Keep that positive mindset
and you will learn
to gain experience from each mistake.
Let your mistakes remind you
that you are on a journey
and every attempt shows
your dedication to life itself.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

'20/20'
"Do It Again" the track that would ultimately open the Beach Boys final album on Capitol Records which was released on February 10th 1969 had originally been released as a single in August of 1968. The track was the first of many post-Pet Sounds era throwbacks to the early Beach Boys sound which would become continually more cliched and eventually lead the Beach Boys to the level of self-parody they would eventually succumb to in the 1980s while their closest contemporaries The Beatles nearing the end of their run in 1969 would go on to be viewed as the most influential band of all time. However, the song itself is not bad on its surface, and it opens with a futuristic sounding (for 1969) drumbeat captured by then-Beach Boys engineer Stephen Desper using tape delays on the drums performed by Dennis Wilson and John Guerin. The song has been re-recorded numerous times over the years on various Beach Boys-related projects most notably the 2011 re-recording at Capitol studios featuring the five surviving Beach Boys at the time backed instrumentally by various members of both the Brian Wilson Band and Mike Loves touring "Beach Boys" to promote the then upcoming Beach Boys 50th Anniversary reunion tour in 2012. The hammering and power drill sound at the end of the song was an excerpt from a track called "Workshop" that was to be a part of the uncompleted "SMiLE" album.

Well said, Ruth. Mistakes make us human...and they are how we grow.
