I remember hearing someone say “I am not an intellectual, but I’m well informed” when they were talking about their interests, and I thought that statement was well put. People are surprised when they discover the variety of subjects I am interested in, but that comes with paying attention to newspapers, magazines, television coverage and the Internet. If you stop to consider how much information is given out on a daily basis, there’s very little reason not to be well informed.
Give yourself opportunities by refusing to limit yourself. I may be a businessman, but I attend concerts, read history books and biographies, listen to music, watch sports and play golf. I don’t put borders on myself or on my interests, and I’m always looking to learn something new.Don’t be afraid to expand your horizons by expanding your base of knowledge. Use curiosity to your advantage by paying attention to things that may not be in your line of business--it’s a form of lateral thinking that could be a catalyst to a new sound that becomes a record breaker.
