Description

Markus (@MarkusAlmond) is a writer and creative mentor. If you're a writer, musician, or other creative person -- OR, if you would like tips on how to become more creative -- I think you'll find a lot value in this episode.   I’ve shared Markus's writings many times on my Instagram page, ThinkGrowProsper. Even if you don't recognize his name, there’s a good chance you’ve seen a quote from his books somewhere on the internet.   Markus is the author of the book Motivational Quotes to Get the Blood Moving, a collection of notes he wrote to himself to help guide him in different areas of his life.   I came across this book in a bookstore in Brooklyn one day while Vanessa and I were visiting New York. I resonated with many of his insights and have wanted to pick his brain ever since.   WHO IS MARKUS ALMOND?   Markus started his career in the music industry as a songwriter with many of his songs played on MTV, E! Network and other television shows.   After moving to New York, he transitioned into writing books and poetry. Many of his works ended up reaching the Amazon best-sellers list. Some of his earlier self-published works were shared by influential people and popular artists like Travis Barker (Blink-182), Rob Dyrdek (MTV), Steven Pressfield (War of Art), and others.   After his success in the music industry and then later as a published author, he began teaching some of the principles he’d learned to other songwriters and authors. Today, he runs a mentorship program for songwriters and authors of all genres.   One of Markus’ deeply held beliefs is that success in any creative field can be replicated no matter where a person is starting from.   You can connect with Markus and see what he's working on right now through his website MarkusAlmond.com   If you enjoyed this episode and find value in this podcast, I humbly ask you to please subscribe and/or leave me a review. Or you can just share it with a friend who you think might find value in it. If you’ve already done any of these, I want to take a moment to sincerely thank you.
