The Opportunity Chain | Ep43

The Musician Toolkit with David Lane

Here's a motivational episode for you for when you feel like your opportunities are too small, or nothing you do really matters. A great exercise for when you have any kind of success is to write down, step by step, all the opportunities you accepted that led to this point. Step by step. Not just what you did as a child studying music that led to your most recent success, but what did you do 3 months ago? Where did you send a resume? What party did you attend, and who did you strike a connection with? What competition did you prepare for? What video did you put on YouTube that might have been seen later by someone else? Then...what did you do before that? And before that? Success often comes after a long chain of little, and sometimes seemingly insignificant opportunities that all add up!
