Listen to the song Optimistic by Sounds of Blackness here.
Sometimes there are simply no words. Listen to the lyrics.
This is a song I have used for the last three decades whenever I need inspiration, hope, and positivity.
The situation doesn't matter, but the feeling that music gives you when you need it most transcends the written word.
We lost two legends this weekend.
Kobe Bryant and Clayton Christensen.
My words won't do their legacy justice.
Incase you are somewhere you can't press play and listen right now, or the Apple Music link above fails outside of the US, here are the lyrics:
Keep, keep on
Never say die
When in the midst of sorrow
You can' t see up when looking down
A brighter day tomorrow will bring
You hear the voice of reason
Telling you this can't never be done
No matter how hard reality seems
Just hold on to your dreams
Don't give up and don't give in
Although it seems you never win
You will always pass the test
As long as you keep your head to the sky
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
Be optimistic
If things around you crumble
No, you don't have to stumble and fall
Keep pushing on and don't you look back
I know of storms and strive
I been around them all of life
Just think ahead and you'll be inspired
To reach higher and higher.
You'll always do your best
If…
Just be optimistic, because what is the alternative?
Dedicated to growing your business,
Val
