Music

Well, the top of the morning to you, welcome to the Brian Bafini Show.

Today, I'm going to do a follow-on piece.

I hope you've listened to that. If you haven't, I encourage you to stop this and go back to episode 281,

because we covered from our peak experience.

These principles from Barry Gordy, who built Motown, who was a phenomenal systemizer,

and brought this structure to this creative process, called Making Music.

I would argue that Barry Gordy did more for racial harmony in the United States, and worldwide than anybody, maybe ever.

And I know that's kind of sacrilegious, and there's been some great people, and Martin Luther King, and people like that.

But this was, in regards to the context of people enjoying an experience together, and bringing people together.

And as I listened to Barry Gordy, he focused on what people's similarities were, and not what differences were,

and that everybody loved Motown music irrespective of their race, creed, or color, or nationality.

And it was brilliant, brilliant, endeavor, Motown, to change the world, and to change music.

And he had an approach, and it was built for that time, but there's things like we shared about in episode 281, that we could learn.

From Barry Gordy, how to make our business and life a hit.

We talked about having the right model in mind, building from your past experiences.

So many people write me, I'm thinking about doing this, I'm thinking about that, I've reached a place in my life,

where I'm ready for a new adventure, so and so forth.

And so many times, what they're setting out to do is not even remotely connected to what they've done in the past.
