The great pianist Edvard Grieg once remarked on the purpose behind the creative energies of his music saying, “it is to build dwellings for men in which they might feel at home and happy.”
You can keep your cards close to your chest and even hide your thoughts from us, but your music or your noise will always expose your “why”.
This is the question that should find its way to the front of every Monday: “Where’s my ‘why’?”
This one has kept me tossing and turning the last three nights.
“If everything you do needs to work on a three-year time horizon, then you’re competing against a lot of people.” But if you’re willing to invest on a seven-year time horizon, you’re now competing against a fraction of those people, because very few companies are willing to do that.” Jeff Bezos
Thanks Jeff…I needed this.
Attract.

May the Muse shine its light on these 3 opportunities for you today. #LTMP
When given the opportunity to make music…
A leader provides a platform for people to sing.
A leader lies awake at night at the thought of his people’s harmonies.
Or put another way, a leader provides a stage, tunes the instruments, and handles the mic check.
From there it is out of his hands, but most people long for the opportunity to #LTMP and they respond by dazzling us.
The minute you, your business, or your life starts to make music is the minute you, your business, or your life starts to speak the universal language.
Music. It may just be the only thing we all agree on.
Which is exactly why you must go make it.
#LTMP
