I Can by Nas is my track for quiet resolve: nothing comes easy, it takes practice, and if you want to be the noun you have to do the verb.
Neil Martin · Beats, Business & Life
Practice
Do the verb
If you want to be the noun, you have to do the verb first. Want to be a runner? Run. Want to be a DJ? Play records. There’s no shortcut.
Master the skills that don’t go out of date
Headphones on, door shut, the same two records over and over. Why practising one thing ten thousand times beats chasing the next hack.
