1. Music Ministry administrative center.  Get out of the Church building. Diversify your activities. Adopt non-music activities like exercise and friends that give you a well rounded life.

2. Get an Education. Take some classes that enhance your music skills. Moreover take some classes that diversify your math, social, artistic, culinary, computer education.
