12 Notes: On Life and Creativity | Quincy Jones
3 posts | 3 read
Wisdom and musings on creativity and life from one of the worlds most beloved musicians, producers, and mentors, Quincy Jones 12 Notes is a self-development guide that will affirm that creativity is a calling that can and should be answered, no matter your age or experience. Drawing from his own life, and those of his many creative collaborators past and present, Quincy Jones presents readers with lessons that are hardworking and accessible, yet speak to the passion of self-expression. He includes sections as deep as how to transform grief into power, and as practical as how to set goals and articulate intentions through daily affirmations. Weaving his story throughout, Jones lets readers in on his own creative process, as well as the importance of letting honesty, hard work, and good relationships drive your career.

This was like listening to a creative, hard working genius grandfather explaining his life lessons with a smattering of one liners like “be the job large or small, do it well or not at all.” Super enjoyable, readable and heartening, this little book is a really good graduation gift or just someone needing a little pick me up.

I wouldn‘t say there‘s anything, bits of advice, in this book that blew me away. Of course I‘m 58 and have learned most of the life lessons imparted by Quincy just by putting in the years. This would be great for a younger person just getting a start in life. Still great stories from his life. A decent read.
