Dedication is a word people throw around, but haven't often defined. It's a compliment we give others. But it's also something that comes with consequences, sacrifices that some don't often recognize and are unprepared for. Join me as Rodney Smith and I discuss this important success principle.
1. What does dedication mean to you?
2. Were you always dedicated? If not, how did you develop it?
3. How do you deal with motivation, laziness, procrastination or do you acknowledge any of these at all?
5. How does dedication tie to goal setting and success?
6. Are role models, accountability partners or mentors a part of your dedication?
7. What has dedication done for you?
8. Your music

He didn't want to be a starving artist, but he always wanted to play music. He found out the local police department, Prince George's County in Maryland had a 20 year retirement plan. So, he said to himself, "If I can manage to not get killed for 20 years, I can get back to my music. I managed to survive, and I've been happily retired for 14 years. I retired when I was 42. I played in a band with a high school friend for almost 10 years until Covid showed up and put us out of business. Now I work with an artist. My life shows dedication to a dream, and the process to achieve that dream."
