The odds of you becoming a big music superstar are very small. Duh.
The odds of you becoming a big music star via the specific method and set of events you’ve set up in your head, takes that very very small chance and reduces it by a bazillion.
Be open to wisdom.
Be willing to deviate from the storyline in your brain.
Be smart about taking a better risk than the one you wanted to take.
Let your guts lead you…in both a cavalier way and a communal way.
Yes, the 10 minute intro on your hit single could work, but the odds of it becoming a smash are so incredibly small, you need to take the better risk of shortening the intro to 10 seconds. Both may be risky…but one risk is better than the other.
The future is going to be different than you think it’s going to be…but the “thinking” is the key, not being right or wrong about it.
If you become a giant music success, you’ll look back and wonder how it all came together…the funny thing is, right now, you’re wondering how it will all come together.
Lots of little things…things that didn’t and will never register in your mind.
Trust your gut and trust your gut to trust the people around you you’ve chosen to work with.
