Inspiration from Taylor’s New Music

Last week Taylor Swift released her 11th album - The Tortured Poets Department. The album received over 200 million streams in the first day becoming the first album to hit that milestone in a single day.

The billionaire’s life has received much attention during recent months, including how she prepared for her record breaking tour by spending 3 hours per day on a treadmill. Through it all, Taylor continued creating new music.

Whether or not you are a Swiftie, here are 3 ways to use Taylor’s new music as motivation:

Elevate your craft: Following a record breaking tour, officially being minted a billionaire and her new relationship with a football superstar, Taylor stayed focused, avoided distractions and continued breaking new records while making her fans happy with more music.

Stay true to who you are: Taylor’s music has evolved while remaining authentic. Her songs are created with truth and vulnerability, including details of her six-year relationship with her ex-boyfriend. Even in duets with Post-Malone and Florence + The Machine, the distinctive Swift style comes across.

Don’t stop: Taylor has repeatedly churned out new music, this time with a 31 track album that lasts over 2 hours. Since she was a 12 year old singing the national anthem for the Sixers in 2002, Taylor has not stopped getting back to work. She continues finding new ways to string together cords and share stories in her music. Like Phil Knight’s quote at the bottom of the newsletter, amazing things can happen when a person simply does not stop.

Thank you Taylor! Let’s have a great week!
