Emmet's Five Tips For Success

 

I have saved this clipping from an old Surfing Magazine and now no longer have the Reference or even the title of the Surfing Mag. If anyone recognizes it I would appreciate being able to give credit where it is due.

 

Was it Malloy Brothers?

Dunno. You tell me

 

1. Get One of Your Friends Really Really Famous

 

If one of your friends blows up huge, then you're going to get rich. It's as simple as that. Dont waste time on talentless douchebags.....cut them from the team. Get your remaining friends together, decide which one of you has the most talent, and all push together to make that one famous. Dont be a jealous bastard. In a few weeks you will all be enjoying the fruits.

 

2. Diversify

 

Dont do the same things. Mix it up. Change speeds. Change location. Fastball. change-up. curve.

 

3. Give to Good Causes

 

Karma. If you do good you get good. Let your money flow to the right places. Protect the planet. Feed the poor. Fair trade. All that stuff. Set a good example that people can stand behind. If they enjoy your modus operandi then you'll go far.

 

4. Stay in the Mix

 

Be involved in all aspects of your "Art". The more you're involved the better it is.

 

5. Dont Run from Who/What You Are

 

If you're known as a 'surf based record label' for example, it's cool. Dont try and run from it. Embrace who you are and grow around it. Sure you can diversify but if you try to change too quickly people will be bummed and you'll be bummed. Dig?

 

 

Now. The challenge. Who do I know who is looming as the NEXT BIG THING? Is it YOU?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



My First Blog ever anywhere follows and because being true to myself is my first priority, my first Blog is to myself. Others feel welcome to read and comment. Some of the views are second-hand but hopefully only small exerpts. Forgive me if you are one of those plagiarised.

After many years as a successful Chemical Engineering Projct Manager, I have started full time study for a Masters Degree in Risk, a topic I have always been interested in and promises to launch a new specialised Career as an Engineering Risk Consultant, the Next Big Thing, I hope.

However my return to study has been less than sytaight forward and I am beset by old monsters guarding the Gateway to my progress. My answer is to Shout Down my Negative Subconscious and Scream Out to Myself:

This is my best chance for strong return to work and strong  income

ITS what I really WANT!

I am interested in a new in-depth regular reading pattern

I will write EXACT STEPS to COMPLETE assigned work and reading

Work and other opportunities will open up

I have ALREADY proclaimed myself in this new field via past professional experience

I will Schedule Accountability and Transparency to interested others

My usual Information and media distractions are ADDICTIONS to curb and detox

I will CALM DOWN personally, cut the drama

do ONE thing at a time

a better option is not there

Good Luck to All Others fighting Study Demons
