  Welcome back to the PTT Music Podcast.
• 0:24
  I'm Jordan Sterling.
• 0:26
  And I'm Ava Brooks.
• 0:27
  We are so glad to have you with us today.
• 0:30
  On this podcast, we love to share the stories, the creativity,
• 0:34
  and the deep purpose behind the music we make, showing how a single song can inspire
• 0:39
  confidence, strengthen your mind, and change the direction of your day.
• 0:44
  Today, we are starting with a big question that I think every single one of us has
• 0:49
  struggled with.
• 0:50
  Why do most people always promise themselves they'll start tomorrow?
• 0:55
  Or next Monday?
• 0:56
  Or on the first of next month?
• 0:59
  We are exploring what is known as the fresh start effect, which is that natural
• 1:04
  human tendency to look for landmarks on the calendar to reset our motivation.
• 1:09
  It is so true, Jordan.
• 1:12
  There is something about a fresh calendar page or a Monday morning that makes us
• 1:16
  feel like we have a clean slate.
• 1:18
  It is like we can separate our past mistakes or our past laziness from this new,
• 1:25
  perfect version of ourselves.
• 1:27
  But the trap is that many people end up putting their lives,
• 1:31
  their creative projects, and their biggest dreams on hold while we wait for that
• 1:36
  perfect temporal landmark to arrive.
• 1:39
  Exactly.
• 1:41
  They tell themselves, they will start that workout routine on Monday,
• 1:45
  or they will sit down to write that new song next month.
• 1:48
  But when Monday finally rolls around, life gets busy, they feel tired,
• 1:54
  and they just push the starting line out even further.
• 1:58
  This constant delay actually drains confidence and builds up a cycle of
• 2:03
  procrastination that feels incredibly hard to break.
• 2:06
  Which brings us right into chapter two of our conversation today,
• 2:10
  which is all about finding a way to create your own fresh start anytime,
• 2:16
  anywhere, without waiting on the calendar.
• 2:18
  And that is where the power of music comes in.
• 2:22
  We want to introduce a track from the PTT Music library that has not been featured
• 2:28
  before, and it is the perfect anthem for this exact moment.
• 2:32
  It is called "Get Set."
• 2:35
  "Get Set" is an incredible contemporary R and B track with a driving,
• 2:40
  energetic production that was built specifically to capture that feeling of
• 2:44
  transition.
• 2:45
  The artists who created it wanted to write a song that acts as an auditory starting
• 2:50
  gun.
• 2:51
  In the studio, they talked about how we can use sound as a physical trigger to reset
• 2:55
  our brain and shift from hesitation to absolute action.
• 2:59
  I love the production on "Get Set" because it perfectly mirrors that psychological
• 3:05
  shift.
• 3:05
  It starts out very focused, almost mysterious, building up this sense of
• 3:11
  anticipation.
• 3:12
  You can feel the tension growing.
• 3:15
  And then, the beat drops, the rhythm kicks in, and it is like a burst of pure
• 3:21
  energy.
• 3:22
  It acts like a sonic reset button.
• 3:25
  When you hear that beat, your mind immediately knows that the waiting is over and it
• 3:30
  is time to move.
• 3:32
  That is the secret to breaking the procrastination loop.
• 3:36
  You do not need to wait for Monday.
• 3:38
  You can use the intro of "Get Set" as your own five second launch cue.
• 3:43
  The moment you press play, you make a commitment that when that main beat drops,
• 3:48
  you are going to take your first step.
• 3:51
  Whether that is opening up a blank document, picking up your instrument,
• 3:55
  or making that phone call, the music provides the momentum you need to just begin.
• 4:01
  It is all about building confidence and perseverance.
• 4:04
  When we use sound to create our own landmarks, we take back control of our time and
• 4:10
  our goals.
• 4:11
  We have already heard from creators who are using "Get Set" as their personal
• 4:16
  creative starting signal, and the results are amazing.
• 4:21
  It is such a beautiful example of music with purpose and sound with impact.
• 4:27
  So do not let another day slip away while you wait for the perfect moment.
