I’ve got some delightful enthusiasms for you this week. Enjoy! Jx
1. A quote I’m resonating with
This week’s comes from the author Anthony De Mello:
“Faith is the willingness to follow the truth, wherever it may lead, no matter what the cost.”
2. A book I’m really excited about
My good friend and colleague, Clarity Coach Nick Bottini has created a terrific new book called Just Play: The Simple Truth Behind Musical Excellence. While the book is going to be particularly valuable for musicians, it actually points to the truth behind ALL performance, from sports to public speaking. He’s doing a kickstarter to launch it and there are only 9 days left to get in on the action. You can find out more and make your pledge here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/65662641/just-play-the-simple-truth-behind-musical-excellen
3. This week’s glimpse of the future
What will the world look like 100 years from now in 2118? The World Economic Forum have painted a picture of a possible future. Fascinating stuff! https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2018/01/heres-what-the-world-will-look-like-100-years-from-now
4. A brilliant mind
One of the thinkers I deeply admire, Howard Bloom, was interviewed this week on the Joe Rogan Podcast. Bloom was the music publicist for such notaries as Prince, Michael Jackson and many more, but his genius is as a researcher and writer. His extraordinary books The Lucifer Principle and Global Brain are some of the most mind-bendingly brilliant pieces of science-writing I’ve ever encountered. You can listen to the full interview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8X32zNup1o
5. This week’s 3 minute miracle
Nick Drake is one of the greatest singer-songwriters of all time. Sadly missed. Here’s the gorgeous ‘Time Has Told Me’ https://youtu.be/Cche-h83qNQ
That’s it for this week!
Big love
Jamie
