“What comes first, the words or the melody?” When asked the question during an interview, legendary lyricist Ira Gershwin gave a hilariously practical answer: “The contract“.
This wisdom is valuable in any field, whether tech, business, or creative industries. Gershwin’s wit highlights an essential truth: while creativity is fantastic, we must not overlook the basics. As the Joker wisely said, ‘If you’re good at something, never do it for free..
Before diving into your next big project, channel your inner Gershwin and Joker. Secure that contract. Make sure your brilliance is protected and valued. This unglamorous yet essential step turns great ideas into successful ventures.
So, next time you’re caught up in the thrill of innovation, remember Gershwin’s interview wisdom and the Joker’s savvy advice.
