Be Remarkable

(This is a post dealing with skill development, whether you are a musician, sports participant, business owner or budding artist.  The logo implies music, yet these ideas are transferable to all endeavors.  Thanks for reading.)

What is remarkable and where does it come from?  Are you in search of remarkable?  Where can we buy it?

And the answer is:  Remarkable comes from someone who is passionate about what they do and they are willing to make it just for themselves, whether others tune in or not.

Remarkable is Glenn Miller using a clarinet when his lead trumpeter busted his lip and was out for the count.  He re-voiced his arrangements with the clarinet in place of the trumpet and revolutionized big band music, creating his own remarkable sound and brand.

Bill Gates and Paul Allen revolutionized computer software by learning from the mistakes others made, and they created a remarkable company called Microsoft.

Are you remarkable?

Sometimes remarkable is one simple change. 
Remarkable could be using a live person to answer the phone in your company when the whole world is going to automated phone systems.

Remarkable could be giving away your first book just to get your name out there in the marketplace.

Find your own unique voice that is remarkable and then watch as they discover you.
