Scott Adams once wrote: “One of the best pieces of advice I’ve ever heard goes something like this: If you want success, figure out the price, then pay it. It sounds trivial and obvious, but if you unpack the idea it has extraordinary power.”
Good quote. From The Psychology of Money.
I just finished watching The Defiant Ones on Netflix. What a great documentary!
When I started watching it, I didn’t expect to be so drawn in. But it’s wonderfully filmed and the story of the business of gansgsta rap and Beats headphones is mesmerizing. I always knew of Dre as a rapper, but now I found out even more about what being a producer meant. Also, Jimmy Iovine. Going from producing for John Lennon in the 70s to building Beats and what would eventually become Apple Music, now that’s a story.
If you have the time, see it. You won’t regret it. Even if you’re not into gangsta rap or anything like that.
