A couple weeks ago, I sent you a link to this Casey Neistat video called DO WHAT YOU CAN'T (and which now has 3.7 million views...).
It said what I couldn't figure how to say at the time about, as I put it, running off to join the circus.
See, as all my ride-or-die readers know, I am running three careers at once around here. My tech consulting career, my #ELB mentoring universe, and my music life.
And sometimes--especially with the music stuff--I get messages from you about the circus life.
A note from me
Friend,
Today's the day. #ENTRYLEVELBOSS is officially two years old. A sassy little toddler of a thing.
Since this whole project began as a video thing, I thought it should be celebrated today with one, too.
Sometimes there's just too much to express, and besides: it's nice to look people in the eye every once in a while.
Tune in for a quick 7-min video, as I reflect back....
"I'm like the hip-hop mogul of HR"
"I'm like the hip-hop mogul of HR."
I apparently said this to my assistant, Hannah, at some point last year and she cannot get enough of it. In fact, she even made a meme about it.
And today really just feels like the right time to drop it. #ELBturnsTWO
(I did mean what I said, for the record. In the same way that Jay-Z might protect and mentor a protege, as I aspire to do for you.)
I've had a lot of fun digging back through the archives this week to pull out the best of #ENTRYLEVELBOSS, and wanted to spin a few more oldies for you as we head into the weekend...
Fan fave: The thing about paying your dues
Continuing to spin the hits in celebration of my baby turning TWO this week.
Today's present is another fan favorite email from early last year--and a super important one. In fact, I didn't realize how important it was until I got flooded with responses from readers.
So, if you're trying to figure out whether or not you should move on or keep paying your dues...
Today is for you. Read on, and tell me what you think.
Fan fave: Hail to the middle ground
Sunny AF in London today. I am bare-legged AND on a patio.
In case you missed Monday's email, let me catch you up: It's our birthday week! Two years ago this Saturday, the first ever #ENTRYLEVELBOSS email hit inboxes across the globe.
In the lead up to the main ~birthday~ event this weekend, I'm honoring this week by pulling out alllllll our best material. I'm raising a glass to you and to me, and to all we've managed to figure out in the last two years.
