052. Work On Myself
This post is going to be a little different. Clermont said some wonderful things in this episode, and he can say it so much better than I can right now. So here’s a few of my favorite quotes from this episode:
“If I dedicate myself and I put in the work, something will happen. I don’t know when, but the when is not my concern, but as long as I know I am dedicated, and I’m willing to put the effort to make it happen, eventually something’s going to happen.”
“I can control my effort but the timing I can’t control that, so I can’t concern myself with that too much. Yes we want things to happen fast, but if we’re just focused on that we’re gonna be frustrated when we have a setback. And setbacks will come. That’s a fact.”
“My real job is really not dj-ing or anything else. My real job is to work on myself. That’s the only job I have on this planet.... Because if I better myself, I can serve better, I can help more people, and I can be a better person to my community.”
“You know, you have a project now and all of a sudden it’s booming. You know it’s, everybody wants that! But that’s not reality. That’s not how life works. The moment you start something, bang you have new problems.”
