Hi my name is Lewis Howes and welcome to the Daily Motivation Show.

I had interviewed many best-selling authors a handful who sold five 10

million copies of their book.

I had Liz Gilbert on one time she wrote the book Eat Pray Love and she did a famous TED Talk about how

to grapple with her best work or her most known work potentially being behind her. Like because she she sold 10 million copies, it was this global movie, it was like this phenomenon that took off in the world when she wrote it.

And how to navigate life after, potentially, what could be the biggest

success you could ever have she was like I probably won't write a book again that

does another 10 million copies it's very rare to do that have you ever

thought about that of like just how to navigate a long career with such a big hit early on and not let

needing to chase downloads or streams or charts be the driver for you like your first single and if it doesn't do that well, like, am I a failure?

Is something wrong?

You know, do you ever think about that?

It's something that it's like a relationship thing

as time goes on.

Of course, you love that the work is seen or heard by as many years as possible if they connect with it.

And there is one part of you maybe that would love that.

I think that as time goes on and even 10 years ago I recognize that and this is

maybe what's most important to me is is that the music that I want to make

and the music that I feel moved to make. It does not necessarily

belong in the spaces of the top 10. Music that is geared towards social spaces and hardy atmospheres, music that is like oftentimes

points towards like an aspirational sort of whatever it is.

A lot of the time it's club life or it's music
