The 3 P’s of Success gives some wisdom nuggets that are vital to understand how “overnight” successes are made. The following information is an example of P #3.

While on our date today in Atlanta, my husband and I heard some (pretty good) jazz music playing. But they don’t play music on the MARTA train. I looked over and saw a jazzy looking guy who’d just sat down (he had a gotee). My husband told me that this guy was actually playing a cd player. The guy then turned off the music and asked other passengers and us if we like  jazz. I told him yes. He stated that he had a few cd’s left for $5.

I didn’t buy one, but gave him my card and told him that I help people learn how to market themselves. He asked me how is he doing so far and gave me his card, as well. I told him that I think he’s very gutsy and that it’s obvious he really believes in himself because he’s putting himself out there in a bold way. And I told him that I really like his music, as well.

I definitely believe he sets an excellent example of pre-success. Someone that doesn’t know him or doesn’t like jazz may not get it. But I get it. He’s doing what it takes, and as long as he keeps at it, he’ll see his dreams fulfilled.

Anyway, if you’d like to check him out:

Here’s a video I found about him, as well, posted by Rick Perera.  Listen for yourself.
