When the going gets tough – the tough get stubborn! Everyone is talking about how bad things are, in the music business, in business in general, in the world. So much negativity!
I prefer to view things as changing – the one thing that we can always rely on. It is in being flexible when meeting those inevitable changes that the challenges – and the triumphs – come to the fore. I remember riots when African American kids were bussed into white neighborhoods. And now look what’s happening – such an amazing time!
Every difficulty comes with a lesson, an opportunity to evolve. An example to be followed – and to be improved upon – for our industry, for the human race, for the planet.
