We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful David Jarvis. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with David below.
Hi David, thank you so much for opening up with us about some important, but sometimes personal topics. One that really matters to us is overcoming Imposter Syndrome because we’ve seen how so many people are held back in life because of this and so we’d really appreciate hearing about how you overcame Imposter Syndrome.
My one regret in life is that I’m not somebody else.
And also the haunting memories of lost love.
Our eyes met across the crowded hat store.
I, a customer, and she, a coquettish haberdasher.
Oh, I pursued, and she withdrew.
Then she pursued, and I withdrew.
And so we danced.
I burned for her, much like the burning during urination that I would experience soon afterwards.
I guess what I’m trying to say is “remember who you said you were the last time you talked to that person.”
Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
Have you ever just been thinking of a song, and then right when you start that first note, you immediately lose interest in the song, but you don’t know how to gracefully stop singing that first note? Just like IIIeeeeyy…!
People think I’m insane.
I think it’s because I grew up with all those skeevy friends that would put on a CD, play like 20 seconds of a track, and then change the song.
And they would just do that over and over and over and now my brain is conditioned to just play, like max, 20 seconds of a track, and by the time it hits my mouth, I’ve already moved on, and fear the retribution.
Eventually people will follow the trail of candy to the unmarked white van that is my brain.
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?
You know, for being one of the most successful musical acts in the last 25 years, despite being one of the most innocuous, I got to give it to Coldplay. And I’m just talking about the music.
Chris is…Chris is Chris.
Got nothing against the dude, although I do find it funny that Bono once called Chris Martin a “wanker”.
Like really?
Really, Bono?
You have been the biggest wanker, not just in the UK, but worldwide, for the last, what, 30 years?
Oh wait, unless…unless you’re upset that you’re no longer King Wanker.
Is that it?
Are you upset have you been outwanked?
Oooo, hey, since Coldplay is about to call it quits, who can take over the mantle of biggest wanker? I’m leaning towards Harry Styles these days.
I also have a black belt in ninja Lego Star Wars.
How would you spend the next decade if you somehow knew that it was your last?
You have condemned me. You have vilified me. You have even criticized me.
Still the acid reflux does not account for my missing socks, nor does my emulation of Kafka, who for a brief period of his life stopped wearing socks.
But I assure you that I continue to wear socks.
I’ve just stopped sending them to the laundry because at this time I’ve acquired a new housekeeper, Odette Beemee, who has consented to do my socks by hand. A gesture that has so moved me that I left the woman my entire fortune, which consists of a black hat and some tobacco.
