Mmmm... One thing, influencing, nonconformity and prioritising
Things to make you go Mmmm…

"To encourage and inspire creativity by sharing more wisdom every week than any electronic artist in the world.”
Three thoughts for your creativity and one on mine.
3 for you:
Choose your one thing.
"You'll probably surprise yourself with what you can accomplish—if you're focused on one thing.
You'll probably frustrate yourself with what you fail to accomplish—if you're doing 5 or 7 or 10 things.
Nobody performs well when stretched in a half dozen directions." - James Clear
How to influence.
“There are only two ways to influence human behaviour: you can manipulate it or you can inspire it.” - Simon Sinek
Go against the grain.
“Nonconformity is not only a desirable thing, it is a factual thing . . . all art is based on nonconformity . . . Without nonconformity, we would have had no Bill of Rights or Magna Carta, no public education system, no nation upon this continent, no continent, no science at all, no philosophy, and considerably fewer religions.” - Ben Shahn
1 from me
“You can’t have a list of priorities—only a list of importance. The priority is the thing at the top.
In our creative endeavours, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by everything we want to achieve. But remember, not everything can be a priority at once.
Focus on what’s most important to you right now. Put it at the top of your list and give it your full attention. By doing this, you’ll find clarity and momentum.
When you prioritise effectively, you make space for your best work to shine. Keep your list of importance close, but always focus on what truly matters.
Stay dedicated, stay inspired, and keep creating. Your journey is unique and every step you take is a step towards your goals.”
