Karma

I believe in Karma. Oh, I don’t know if I would really call it that, exactly. I feel if you do something good, it usually comes back to you. If you do something bad, it can come back to you as well. In a Christian sense, I believe you “reap what you sow”.

This is why I try so hard to be ethical and honest and nice in my dealings with singers and musicians and anyone I have to work with regularly. It doesn’t take any special effort and it can make a difference. “Good will out” has happened to me over and over.

In my musical life, I try to do good by keeping my eye out for other people–if I hear of a job that would be perfect for someone I know, I tell them. Or recommend them–even those who I know don’t like me. I think if I do, good will be returned to me. And, in many ways, it has. In my travels, I try to never say anything bad if I can help it, at least not in public.

Perhaps others feel differently, but I will always take the high road if I can. And if I can’t, I try to be as kind as possible.
