Reinvention 20 Edition

Reinvention – 2.0 Edition is all about reinventing the existing you. The canvas of your life is always blank and you can paint a completely different picture than you ever painted before; your past does not equal your future. Our stories can either liberate us or detain us, depict us as hopeless victims or hopeful champions, feed us anguish or thankfulness. Life is monotonous; eliminate distractions and focus on the fundamentals of life by finding ways to experience joy in the mundane of life. The beauty of any reinvention is that even though it is difficult to start, the person you often become is even better and stronger than before. Everything in life is contagious—who you are with, the words you hear and read, the things you see, and the things you seek out to learn. Make sure you are infected with the secret special life-saving virus that propels you each day to live a better life than the day before. And, while reinvention is incredibly important—the ability to push yourself out of your comfort zone and into new territory is one of the most tried and truest ways of keeping people interested in who you are and what you’re doing. You are no longer defined by what you did or what someone did to you. Yesterday has been taken care of, and a wonderful tomorrow awaits you to rewrite your story, reshape your identity, redefine your outlook and rephrase what you say to life. Your new life is with you and the future is bright. Don’t look beyond the horizon, don’t get tempted—it’s just a ‘chimera’ you will never understand. Complex as it is, focus on what you have in life—reinvent yourself. Life is calling. Where are you! Go, claim your legacy—make a Magnum Opus of your life. Be the author of the 2nd edition of your life story—give it a name— Reinvention – 2.0 Edition.

Poetry from beloved lead guitarist of the multi-platinum record selling legendary band Triumph Reinvention is a largely autobiographical collection of poetry — a project that followed on the heels of Rik Emmett retiring from a touring musician’s and college educator’s life in early 2019. Inside all of the slashes that define him — singer/songwriter/guitarist/rock star/teacher/columnist — writing has always been his strongest avocation, and the poetic style of “Ultra Talk,” in particular, offered a welcome spark for a songwriter’s freedom of expression. This creative license is organized under seven headings – The Humanities, Life & Death, There’s Politics in Everything, Double Helix, Soapbox Sermonettes, Time Time Time, and Ars Nova 2020. Rik’s poetry (literally) reinvents his own retirement, and it’s not just some aging dilettante’s bucket list fancy. He discovered a sincere way to tie up a lot of loose ends, fulfill dormant promise, and eschew show biz tangents. Reinvention, his first book, makes some sense of a life that always went in a lot of different directions at once. Finally, he’s given himself permission to chase a mode of self-expression with less commercial potential … than jazz guitar recordings.
