Episode 3551:

Success comes from results, not just potential. Derek Sivers shares a lesson from the music industry: those who show momentum get better opportunities. He also warns against blindly following advice, as it’s often shaped by personal bias. Instead, gather multiple perspectives and trust your own judgment.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://sivers.org/success-first & https://sivers.org/advice

Quotes to ponder:

"You have to make your own success first, before you ask the industry for help."

"Show that you’re going to be successful without their help. Show that you have momentum."

"The problem is taking any one person’s advice too seriously. Ideally, asking advice should be like echolocation."
