I’ve found two articles that I think are worth reading – and they’re related, although not by intention.
The first is this, which talks about redefining musical success in areas other than winning competitions or selling hundreds of albums.
The other is this, written by this week’s Profile Phriday interviewee. We talked a bit about his devotion to a specific martial art (I learned about him initially through a mutual friend who is a fight choreographer), and though it didn’t make it into the final interview, it is a big part of who he is. With me, and in the attached article, he talks about the amount of time it takes to master an activity and makes a compelling argument for finding the art, the beauty, the discipline in all one does.
I’m considering this pairing my dose of inspiration for a long weekend.
