Wisdom from Steve Martin

January 27, 2008 drewrozell 2 Comments

Turned on the tube this weekend and caught some of the Charlie Rose show on PBS.

Steve Martin was on.

I think he’s a brilliant dude.

I always admire someone who can do a lot of things very well (comedian –> actor —> writer) and evolves with their interests.

I was particularly struck by one thing he said.

He was sharing his response to people who ask him how to break into show business/become successful.

His response:

"Be so good that they cannot ignore you."

Simple.

And true.

    On the topic of all the things he can do well, he’s also got a Grammy award for playing the banjo. He’s certainly a multi-talented man.

    Hi Bonni.

    Great point.

    I think he mentioned that he didn’t take up playing until he was an adult, either…

    thanks for writing,
