Oprah asked Jay-Z how he achieved success without having had a vision or plan. In the video below, Jaz-Z briefly explains. Videos 1, 3 and 4 follow below.


Part 1, 3 and 4 Below

Oprah: “Neither of us had a vision or a plan for all of this… so what do you think made all of this happen?”

Jay Z: “I think it’s the passion for what you do… and you finding something that you can be true to… something that’s really close to who you are as a person.

You have to have PASSION for what you do… I LOVE it.”

Really liked this. 

Loving what you do is nice, but KNOWING what you REALLY like to do because you know yourself is even nicer.

That way, you won’t do what I did and choose something that was just a passing fancy.

Plato said, “Learn to KNOW THYSELF.” That means, take the time, make the effort, study. No idle speculation or spur of the moment decisions about this.

You will be living and working with YOU for the rest of your life - guaranteed. It’s the passion that will carry you through the tougher times.

Thanks to Jay-Z and Oprah.
