Ever feel like you need to do something more?
I am really feeling like I need to do something with my life, anyone else get this way? Is this mid life crisis?

Well its a good idea to do....something of course, I mean what have you done already? I have done a bunch of stuff in 55 years but still feel like a slacker, so it depends on where you are starting from I guess.

Doing something more usually requires doing something else less.

I have done a bunch in 41 years, I am very much an overachiever! I have had some huge accomplishments that have gained me the ultimate accolades in my industry, but that is that. I feel like I need a new mountain to climb.

This is when i bought my first guitar. You need maybe a piano? Corvette? If you're healthy, why not join a mountain climbing club. Have you climbed Kilamanjaro yet? Maybe you haven't taken a vacation in so long you've forgotten how to relax. This one had happened to me and so a travelin we went. It'll really soup up things all together. Have you been to Tagatay yet? Seen Thailand? All the National Parks? Read a really good book yet or collect anything? Collections are great. Me, i used to collect things made of glass and porcelain--now guitars and amps. Life has just begun for you so why not enlarge your horizons or do you plan on leaving it all to your kids and relatives?

I will be taking a trip to nashville for one of my next road, looking forward to that. Vacation, I think you are right! I need a vacation, been a rough year and I have not had one. I need a vacation to get more done.
