Wow this was awesome I actually went to the From A Birds Eye tour concert in SF and I remember him mentioning that he was close to thinking about cancelling the tour but I really didn’t think anything of it at the time but to hear him say it again in relation to his disappointment in the reception of his album is crazy. I like how he talks about this too it kinda humanizes his feelings about the media. I liked the album A lot tho great Ted talk

I’m at a time in my life or stage where I REALLY needed to hear exactly this. Sitting in this tiny room in Ecuador my first stop in my solo traveling journey I know there’s so much I wanna accomplish in life but I’m lacking the true faith and belief in myself. This really struck a cord and I’ll put these points into practice. I believe Ultimately God send this message to me. Allowed me to see it at no better time. Thank you Cordae for sharing this and your heart to help and inspire others ♥️

Yes good point writing down your goals is a kind of self-fulfilling prophecy. If you didn’t believe you could achieve them then you would never set them. Yet by writing them down it focuses your attention on getting them completed.
