Some days I think funny and some days I don’t, but I always
think. Today is one of those un-funny days and this is what I think.
How about having a fresh idea or a concept that you thought up, not just repeating what someone else said? Are you a Republican or Democrat, Catholic or protestant because you really studied their different ideology or because mommy and daddy are? I don’t care what you are, just be yourself, not a clone.
How many times have you heard that it just takes good hard work to be successful? Really……how many rich coal miners do you know? I can’t think of anything that would be harder work than being a coal miner and there are lots of rich people who haven’t hit a lick at a snake or never lifted anything heavier than a fork.
I always told all the artists I worked with that the music business is a total crap shoot. Having a lot of talent doesn’t guarantee anything. Mostly I think success comes from passion and perseverance.. A lot of success comes from being in the right place at the right time and that usually comes from persistence. I also know that success and happiness are not always the same.
If you can live your life doing what you love to do, then you are a huge success no matter what your bank account says and if your happiness depends on what other people think of you or your talent, you will never be happy. That only comes from what you think of you.
Stay tuned for future adventures.
