Why tone is important in marketing

I am an average guitar player. Sometimes I think I should have played the piano. I have an ear for piano, I can pick up any melody and start banging the keys and music miraculously fills the air. With the guitar on the other hand, I can play when sheet music is put in front of me. I can learn to play songs, but I can’t play by ear.

I guess that is something to do with the way my brain is wired. I am not the front man, rock star I thought I could be when I first had guitar lessons. I’m more the guy who sits behind the piano, fully integrated into the sounds being made and lost in the full force of the music.

They are motivated and they have a will to succeed that is admirable; they make die-hard sacrifices. In some instances I want to emulate them, in others I want to sit down with them to discover more because there is so much that isn’t being told that goes on behind the scenes.


I have interviewed several sporting champions and there are certain traits they have in common that determine their success, no matter what field they play on.
