How to perform

Posted in entrepreneurship by Steve Sammartino on October 30, 2011

It’s easy to think we can start performing like rockstars once we become one. As I’ve mentioned before, the way to become, is to start acting that way beforehand.

I happened upon a Youtube Video of one of my favourite rock bands. Rage Against the Machine. It was their first ever public gig. And Zack was performing as though we was already at Lollapalooza – even though there was about 3 people standing around listening.

Click on the video here and randomly check out any part of the video and you’ll see what I’m talking about. The hint for startups, is not to wait for permission, but to start performing as though we already have it.

    Bullet in your head circa 18:00 is epic

    I like how the crowd grows, dancing starts, and then applause at the end

    You will see lots of similar advice given to contestants on ANTM.
