In this episode of Thursday Thoughts, Monique shares her opinions on the new three-part Netflix documentary chronicling the meteoric rise of Kanye West from small-time Chicago music producer to global icon.
Monique uses Kanye’s musical journey to illustrate the importance of persistence and resilience in the face of constant rejection and ridicule. By examining Kanye’s life we can see that even the most talented visionaries face immense roadblocks, humiliation, and doubt on their path to success.
Oftentimes new innovators and founders believe that their sheer talent or breakthrough ideas will automatically open doors to wealth and prestige. Kanye’s story just serves to remind us that immense talent is nothing without persistent work ethic and unstoppable self-belief. Only when we truly believe in our ideas and ideals in the face of heartbreak or rejection will we truly be able to transform industries!
