I’ve often referred to my record label, Lujo Records, as my “on the ground MBA”.
It was that. I learned a lot about business.
And I learned something else you don’t necessarily learn in school: excitement lies in the autonomy of action.
It’s one thing to get a thing done.
It’s another to makes choices, follow instincts, defend choices, reject unwanted advice, follow your heart’s wise compass.
Your aliveness comes from having an idea, big or small, and seeing it through, start to finish.
The thrill of doing so isn’t only life-giving, it’s life-making.
