Now that art is involved….

Back in the day (not long ago), art wasn’t blessed within the lines of commerce.

We just wanted the news and maybe The Late Show.

We just wanted a pair of shoes.

We just wanted a hotel for the night.

We just wanted a cup of coffee.

No room for art here in these wants.

But that was then and this is now.

We just wanted a pizza when that is all Dominoes offered. Now enter Cane Rosso to open pandoras box on what you thought a pizza was. You didn’t know you wanted art with your pizza did you?

We just wanted to make mobile calls when that is all Motorola offered. Now enter Steve Jobs and with his cronies looking to bring sexy back with your phone. You didn’t know wanted fashion and art with your phone did you?

We just wanted to take a picture, but Instagram knew we wanted to make art. You din’t know you could be or wanted to be an artist did you?

Look at who is gaining market share and you’re going to find a bunch of artist, modern day hippies, ex-hippies, and so called “randoms” shaking things up and changing the world.

Intro to Art, in my opinion, is just as necessary as Intro to Business in your career development.

Intention.

Simple question, really – What are your intentions today?

What call(s) must be made?

What line item must be removed/added?

What deal must get done?

What idea must have its corporate docs drawn up?

What chapter must be finished?

What discussion must happen?

What song needs to be written?

Soon it will be Friday.

Soon it will be December 31.

Soon it will be January 1.

Soon it will be April 15.

Soon it will be a new market.

Soon it will be time for you to retire.

And soon your tomorrow’s will reflect the intentions of your today’s.

Intention is the birthplace of all great legacies, great moments, and great stories.

Happy Monday. #LTMP

Dreams to paper to pockets to realization. 2 Daily Actions That Have Changed My Life.

75 days ago my life changed.

I wrote down my Definite Chief Aim as Napoleon Hill encourages us to do.

Meaningful Specific > Wandering Generality.

I now read this allowed twice a day and carry it with me wherever I go.

I also met a guy named Grant Cardone who encouraged me to write out my goals and dreams twice a day at morning and night. It should be noted he encouraged me to write them in the present – as if they had already happened. This is action is full of power.

In the last 75 days I’ve seen more focus, more productivity, more fulfillment than I ever thought possible. Across all lines – family, life, business – everything has become richer and grown deeper roots.

When the dream leaves your mind and hits the paper it becomes physical. You no longer have to picture it – you can actually see it.

Now I’m finally getting clarity on where this train is headed.

I hope these steps can help you in the same way.

Godspeed in your music making.
