This stems from the question: How do I use my passion for music in day-to-day life?
My response is through connection building.
Connection Building
Connection building specifically through music is the popular thing to do. Personally I feel it’s overly trendy to where most miss the point, but I’ll probably feel better about it after discussing it personally a bit. One rough idea that I feel could work is finding collaboration opportunities with videographers to co-produce.
Working directly with the influence of music
Working directly with the influencer of music still requires building connections. It could be argued that it requires more than average since it’s such an emotional staple in people’s lives.
Musical influences lead to some of the most passionate conversations you’re ever gonna experience. It’s actually some of that intensity that leads to creating some of the most influential personalities in media. That’s something to consider when you’re working on discovering your purpose musically.
Let’s say you’re someone that considers becoming a musician and you’re not too sure with what part of music actually empowers you. Well first, you have to understand it completely rewires your brain—not just helps you learn music. The way you hear conversations become different, way you see the world, watch movies, and anything else that calls for sound becomes changed to a different tint when viewing the world.
If someone were to ask me if listening to music works for you productivity wise when working, I wouldn’t really know what to say definitely. I strongly stand on the side of where if you make music yourself, at some point it has to get quiet because you’re making the sound eventually. Then again there’s some people that are wired in such a unique way where they could be amongst the noisiest crowd and still find some way to remain creative over the seemingly dominant environment.
Freely Discussing Concerns With Areas of Passion
When you’re operating from an area of passion, freely discussing your concerns is important because it maintains harmony.
- Would you do it for free?
- Does it matter how much time you spend on it?
- Are your interests shared among the community that you function in?
Are you keeping up with me here?
These things keep the integrity and authenticity of any campaign you’re managing.
If you’re someone that hates faking passion just for the sake of pandering to others, you’re in a position that needs to be reconsidered.
Things you’re passionate about should just appear naturally to you.
There might be a struggle you’re experiencing with consciously finding awareness of what you’re passionate about. But that shouldn’t hold you back from developing related qualities.
Freely discussing areas of concern you’re passionate about is critical, because it’s exercising what should be a universal right to express.
I’m speaking idealistically by the way.
It shouldn’t be much of a surprise that there’s areas in the world where others aren’t able to share their opinions openly.
We creatives have to express our ability to do at the fullest extent.
Let me be clear too in sharing that this should not be confused with an endorsement of telling anybody else to follow their passion.
It’s actually advice that shouldn’t be applicable to every single body.
Sometimes you need to move forward before you’re sure where you’re going.
