ANECDOTE

Amy Winehouse Refused To Be Molded

  • Amy Winehouse refused to be molded into a pop image and wrote her own songs.
  • The host contrasts that stance with creators who preemptively copy success out of fear of failure.
ADVICE

Double Down On Your Originality

  • Double down on your unique voice and refuse to become a copy of others.
  • Make a pact to fail as an original rather than succeed as a duplicate.
INSIGHT

  • If you only repeat others' connections, you're making wallpaper not art.
