• In my NYU music business classes, we try to emphasize the importance of both making a life and a living and we’re concentrating on the untapped powers we all have.

• The ability to lead – step forward and take a chance.

• The power to make other people happy by being in our presence or as one learner said “when my eyes smile, they smile”.

• The strength to enforce healthy boundaries and stop letting others make us feel badly about what we do.

• Potential is already within; the challenge is to begin to use it.
