How To Stand Out From The Crowd - The Guitarist Eating Bear


Artists that stand out from the crowd have pretty
straightforward approach to success.

It’s really just a matter of
being willing to do what the person next to you will not.

Have you heard of the two friends who went camping and
had a bear come charging out of the woods at them?

As one of them turned to run the other bent down to take off
his boots and put some tennis shoes on.

“Are you insane?!” the other friend said, “that bear’s going to eat us!”

“You don’t understand,” the other one replied. “All I have to do to not get eaten
is run just a little bit faster than you.”

Now that's a nice friend! =)


But the moral of the story is simple and true.

Getting to the top 1-3% in ANY endeavor is really just a
matter of being willing to do a little bit more than everyone else.

Whether that’s being chosen to be the guitarist in a band during an audition or trying to get a name & recognition for yourself or team you are working with.

Sounds pretty simple right? And yet amazingly, the majority of people
who fail still wonder why they fail.

Doing more than everyone else doesn’t just mean simply working harder though.
It can also mean learning new things, letting go of preconceived ideas, embracing your uniqueness & keeping an open mind.

With the advent of information technology, more & more guitarists/artists
are being recognized and appreciated by others for what they do.
More & more are also wanting to learn the secrets of becoming a guitar
god etc. many of whom will want a quick and easy solution.

But only the people who are willing to go the extra mile will reap huge rewards.

This means being brave enough to be unique and be yourself.

Things like developing your own style, character, philosophy, approach
to your guitar playing and making your own materials.

You can achieve the level of playing that you want by yourself, but
if you truly want to build your DREAM, you’ll need to know yourself
better & get yourself equipped mentally, emotionally & to some degree spiritually.
