54. Value of Persistency, Self-Improvement, and Being Yourself｜Louis The Child

Louis The Child (Frederic Kennett  + Robert Hauldren) is a DJ and production duo, with hot singles such as "Better Not" (100 million streams on Spotify), "It's Strange", "Weekend", and more. They have been praised by the likes of Taylor Swift, Lorde, and their song was used as part of the FIFA 16 soundtrack. 

The two of them met in high school at a Madeon concert. Few years later, they were touring and opening for him across the country. 

There are so many fascinating parts to their story that I'm excited to share. We talked about:

Their creative process, and how they view differentiation amongst other artists
Skillstacking and the importance of combining your skills to find your competitive advantage
Why the two of them choose to continue learning new skills like piano, writing, and drums instead of delegating it to others
Daily habits and how persistency has played a pivotal role to where they are today
Favorite books that have made the most impact, what they're reading today
Importance of continuous self-improvement and the 10,000 hour rule
Feeling the fear and doing it anyways
& much more

If you're an artist, entrepreneur, or someone that wants to know what type of mindset and daily habits you need to stand out, this is worth the listen.
