Have you ever asked yourself?

“How many of my work days would I want to DVR?”

“Why am I here?”

“What’s my music?”

“What do I hear when I look at the clouds?”

“What do I see when I look out on the ocean?”

“What creates the space for you to pursue your passions and find inspiration?”

I was asked these questions yesterday by a mentor of mine…and the clarity on the other side of these questions was earth-shattering.

R.W. Emerson once said, “The world makes way for the man who knows where he is going.”

Before 12/31/12 ask these questions, pause, and stretch for these answers. Rest assured 2013 will welcome with you with a smile and open arms.

Does Your Music Have a “Why’?

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’?”

A Platform to Sing

When given the opportunity to make music…

  • The world changes.
  • The unbelievable becomes believable.
  • A collective response creates a movement.

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.

This video says what I’m trying to convey.
