Helloo0O Ladies
and Gentlemen!
Welcome back to
Graceland Ontario − your one stop location for success
advice and tips to take your life to the next level. This week, we’ll talk more
on persistence.
I figured I’d
bring up the old Elvis story again, because it’s good − and most people, when
they think of Elvis, discount it.
Elvis was
persistent, contrary to what people may say. Sure, his manager, Colonel Parker
was good (and sometimes pushed him around). Sure he had a lot of fans, but not
originally.
Elvis worked a lot of shows under the Blue Moon Boys
title back in ’54 with Scotty Moore on guitar and Bill Black on bass. He kept
performing even when people told him he should go back to trucking (his
previous career), like the talent producer on the Grand Ole’ Oprey (then the
largest country music show in the U.S.). But he kept chugging along with his routines just the same.
Because he loved it. Listen to him live, or even after singing a take in
the studio. When you love what you do, you’ll keep doing it. Even when people
insult you. Even when you’re not certain you can become great yourself, your
love of what you do will pull you through.
That’s the key to persistence guys… love it or lose it − a motto to work by.
See you next
week!
Alex H.
