We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Jah Mulley a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Jah , thanks for sharing your insights with our community today. Part of your success, no doubt, is due to your work ethic and so we’d love if you could open up about where you got your work ethic from?
My work ethic comes from never having nothing . I grew up kind of poor going threw many of winters with no lights and heat in the house . Going to school smelling like kerosine because the fumes got in all the little bit of clothes I had and I think that fuels me to work hard because I just always had it in my mind to not go back to that
Appreciate the insights and wisdom. Before we dig deeper and ask you about the skills that matter and more, maybe you can tell our readers about yourself?
Well I’m rapper /singer(crooner) /song writer /CEO. I just try to make music that can get people threw there struggles / uplift moods . I like to feel as though I’m speaking to the souls of who ever taps in. I’m currently working on a few projects and some merch should be on the way soon
Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
Well for starters you have to have endurance I feel that’s the most important skill in any journey in life / life gets tuff so you gotta have tuff skin people and other factors in life will try to detour you from what your trying to accomplish but you gotta keep on keeping on #goinfanunn. Focus is another skill you have to master you have to learn to let the distractions not distract you. Confidence is the last one you have to be sure of what your doing it shouldn’t be anything anyone can tell you that’s gonna make you question your self especially no because every one is not gonna say yes to you.I feel these things are awakened in certain people not developed but it takes time you have to accept you for you first.
Any advice for folks feeling overwhelmed?
When I feel overwhelmed I like to isolate my self . Isolation allows you time to think and focus. Sometimes you need to reflect on situations to figure out what’s going wrong or what needs to be improved.
