In an enlightening conversation with Rick Rubin, a deep dive is taken into the world of creativity, authenticity, and personal growth.
Rubin shares his wisdom on the importance of staying true to oneself, the power of curiosity, and the role of intuition in achieving success.
The wisest thing we can do is know enough to know we don’t know. – Rick Rubin
Artistic Evolution
It’s important for artists to continue evolving and pushing themselves artistically to avoid complacency and loss of interest.
Changing the context or environment can enhance creativity and productivity.
Success and Fulfillment
Success should not be measured by external metrics but by personal fulfillment and impact.
Pursuit of external validation can lead to unhappiness, while presence, learning, and growth, achievement, and service are essential elements for joy and fulfillment.
The more yours is personal, the more it’s not like hers or his or theirs, it’s yours. – Rick Rubin
Intuition and Decision Making
Listening to your intuition and trusting it over external advice is key.
Many people lose touch with their inner voice over time, but paying attention to what’s going on inside oneself can provide valuable intuitive information.
Curiosity and Success
Curiosity is a powerful tool for achieving dreams and finding success.
Having a beginner’s mindset and being open to others’ thoughts is valuable.
Embracing uncertainty and not holding firm beliefs about how things are can lead to unexpected insights and success.
Self Reflection
Reflecting on the journey of success and how it was achieved can provide valuable insights and lessons.
Writing down dreams upon waking can help tap into subconscious messages and help understand the abstract way your subconscious interprets reality.
Abundance Mindset
An abundance mindset allows for creative freedom, whereas a scarcity mindset can hinder artistic expression.
Everyone is special and capable of creating something beautiful; there are no ‘special’ people.
Purpose and Passion
Finding one’s purpose may not necessarily be tied to their job; the job can support them while they pursue their passion.
Success often comes from listening to what’s going on inside oneself, not from external direction.
