MMMM: Success, productivity, 5 rules and what a carry on
Things to make you go MMMM on Thursday
by Darien J
"To inspire and encourage electronic artists to Make, Manage and Market Music every day."
Three thoughts for your music and one on mine.
3 for you:
Dan Norris on things we rarely consider when thinking of routes to success:
"Timing is a huge factor that is rarely acknowledged and can often be the difference between complete failure and monumental success. What a person starts with, who their friends are, and what they have access to are all factors that determine success."
Another one from our man Dan Norris on how to be more productive with limited time and he seems to know a thing or two about creativity too:
"There are a bunch of productivity tools and techniques available that the vast majority of people don’t use. Things like single-tasking, smaller projects, tracking your progress, setting goals, doing timed work sessions free of interruption, and adding accountability are all proven methods for maximizing your productivity in a short amount of time."
And from one of my idols growing up (probably even more so now that he’s in his mid-seventies and still knocking it out of the park).
Arnold Schwarzenegger and five rules for success:
1. Have a clear vision
2. Never think small. Think big
3. Ignore the naysayers
4. Work your ass off
5. Don’t just take, give back
1 from me
This Sunday I’ll be joining the Berlin-Brighton crew once more down by the seaside for a massive carry on at Berlin x Volks - Terrace & Beach Äfterparty.
Thousands will be looking for somewhere to go after partying on the beach in the daytime so we’ll be providing the reason for them to call in sick on Monday (luckily I’m on the terrace at 7pm). 😬
