(when and where you choose)<\/p>\n<p>You are reading this because you&#8217;d like to learn how to spend more time doing the fun stuff, generating more revenue and growing your relationships with fans and contacts, doing what you love.<\/p>\n<p>Playing The G.A.M.E. is how you become your true self, fulfill your dreams and desires and create your paradise doing what you love.<\/p>\n<p>There are quite a few things you need to know<\/p>\n<p>There are 3 dimensions, thus 3 perspectives.<\/p>\n<p>The Entrepreneurial, The Artistic, and The Internal Perspectives-are the 3 vantage points that can identify, diagnose, and create solutions for any obstacle or challenge you&#8217;ll encounter.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll be embracing the roles of an Artist in the Modern World, fully integrating the responsibilities and mindsets of being the CEO of your Content Business, the Leader of Your Tribe, and of course the Creator of your content, lifestyle, and career.<\/p>\n<p>For many Artists, seeing from the entrepreneurial perspective will require a little practice, but eventually it will become seamless and natural. Throughout this journey you will be learning how to shift between looking from the 3 perspectives of your brand. The three lens&#8217; are going to allow you to see and understand opportunities and solutions that most will overlook.<\/p>\n<p>This is what we call 3D Artist Development, or what I think the next step for Artist Development in the modern world&#8230; is. It addresses all dimensions without sacrificing or coming at the expense of anyone of them.<\/p>\n<p>Think about it&#8230; A couple example stories about health, finances, relationships, etc.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s needed is that we get our heads in the GAME of business. But I also want to stress to you that does not mean it can\u2019t be FUN, and on your own terms-as well!<\/p>\n<p>Your G.A.M.E., starting with mindset-which you&#8217;ll be developing, is key to everything you need to grow your career. Creating music is what we love to do, and mastering OUR G.A.M.E. is how we\u2019ll take care of everything else.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Explain the breakthrough and growth trap that shifts the mindset from simply an artist, into the CEO of their content business.<\/p>\n<p>You, my friend-are the CEO of your very own Content Business.<\/p>\n<p>And with this promotion of your Entrepreneurial Status &#8211; you must accept a few additional duties.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s required is congruence with the laws of commerce.<\/p>\n<p>You have stepped into a new arena, and whether you like it or not-to be successful with your Content Business you must be congruent with the laws of Commerce, and able to perform the 5 functions of running your Content Business Operating System. (Again, more on this later, this is just the condensed overview of how the system works.)<\/p>\n<p>Once you can perform all 5 functions you can begin to master your GAME. The Game of Business.<\/p>\n<p>There is no derogatory or jaded connotation for the word GAME in this case, but rather-that&#8217;s exactly what it is.<\/p>\n<p>Your GAME is one perspective of your Content Business. It is the Entrepreneurial Dimension of your 3D Brand.<\/p>\n<p>This training system is designed to help you develop in all 3 areas. They all work together.<\/p>\n<p>The GAME of Content Business goes like this\u2026 You use the tools (tools of the modern project studio) to build your Assets, (skills, content, resources) master your Main Moves, (Core Focus Activities) and create your paradise.(freedom and fulfillment doing what you love, on your terms.) You do this via the effective operation of your Content Business Operating System.<\/p>\n<p>Milestone 1:<\/p>\n<p>Is pretty straightforward, but a massive achievement nonetheless. You need to earn more than you spend, (ideally as much as you&#8217;d select-in order to live the lifestyle you choose) and thus make a comfortable, full-time living doing what you love, on your terms.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s the first major milestone you&#8217;ll get to. If you\u2019re already there, then you\u2019ll have a different target for Milestone 1 as specified in your own Content Business Blueprints which you\u2019ll be receiving soon.<\/p>\n<p>In order to produce greater financial return, all that&#8217;s required is congruence with the natural laws of commerce.<\/p>\n<p>People exchange currency for other forms of value. Your content is a service and it is your currency. In order to reach your First Major Milestone you need to exchange enough of your valuable currency, for theirs. To yet again sound grossly over-simplistic, you need to build a fanbase\/CORE relationships, over-deliver in value, and then ask fo<\/p>\n<p>The G.A.M.E. is the heart and science of success<\/p>\n<p>Art, story, emotion, fulfillment are the heart, achievement, science, laws and principles are the science.<\/p>\n<p>The Science of achievement<\/p>\n<p>The numbers, the plays, the tests, the experiments,<\/p>\n<p>Laws and principles<\/p>\n<p>Human behavior<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The development of people<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not one without the other<\/p>\n<p>We look at the whole person and their whole life as well as their career and business<\/p>\n<p>Their is a science to success.

That means you not only create products, but you SERVE an audience. The operative word being service. Which now requires the understanding and clear identification of who you are serving with what you are creating. Thank you Todd Rundgren for demonstrating that so clearly.<\/p>\n<p>So how do we measure and track the progress and growth of our careers? How to measure your success and build a long term career?<\/p>\n<p>Modern Musicianship is a complete development system that includes individual systems inside the academy like the Goal Achievement System.

The Modern Music Business is about authentic connection and the ability to TRULY connect and prosper via passionate tribal communities and leverage the technology that helps connect and empower us all to do what we love. To do work we love that matters to the tribe we choose. To create the lifestyle and the career that we want.<\/p>\n<p>In the Academy, we assert and advocate a strategy that is proven to achieve that purpose faster and more effectively than any other approach we\u2019ve seen over the last decade.<\/p>\n<p>I believe it is so effective because it is extremely simple in nature, but ties deep into our early roots as people and has been hardwired into us over the course of hundreds of thousands of years.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s essentially the way culture began and existed for many many years, and though the traditional music industry, what we would call the record industry era, which we might refer to as-the way things were, was and I believe will be seen as an abstract blip on the radar, a teething stage for the modern music industry which opens up much more opportunity for many more people, and fundamentally levels the playing field.<\/p>\n<p>The modern music industry is the birthplace, it laid the infrastructure for the modern artists revolution, or the empowerment of Artists, Musicians, and Creators as the CEO\u2019s, operators, leaders, and masters of their own career.<\/p>\n<p>This is the New Game.<\/p>\n<p>The Modern Music Business brings us back to the heart of what music is all about\u2026 Uncensored expression, passion, connection, culture, and authenticity.<\/p>\n<p>As we\u2019ve upgraded in societal and commercial conditions there is an opportunity for us to now upgrade in both artistic and cultural expression for those willing to control their own destiny, to liberate the music business and traditional career paths and join the Revolution of musical artistry.<\/p>\n<h2>How to grow a modern music business<\/h2>\n<p>Modern Musicianship is not just how to grow a music business, it is how to grow as a person, and as an entrepreneur.<\/p>\n<p>Playing the game is raising your vibration, develop the skills, habits, and mindsets as well as living into the blueprints of your ideal life and career.<\/p>\n<p>Think you can play? Well you can! I\u2019m going to share with you some key insights to set you on your path.<\/p>\n<p>It is the fundamental journey from traditional artist to modern musician through the process of soul expansion and business growth an artist develops themselves holistically through the process of 9 stages primarily including self actualization, self transcendence, grassroots authentication, and music business liberation.<\/p>\n<p>By playing the game you are filling your cup to be able to give back to others.<\/p>\n<p>First you have to understand that it starts with the music.<\/p>\n<p>Until that\u2019s better than good\u2026 OUTstanding.
