Shep Gordon: 我从不害怕身体上的危险,但我每天都害怕无法成功,因为这关系到许多人的生活。这种恐惧是好事,它能驱使我做得更好。我从母亲那里学到了倾听和同情的重要性,并努力在每一次互动中都让对方感觉更好。我短暂的狱警经历源于理想主义,虽然最终失败,但这让我明白,帮助他人需要能力和方法。我从未刻意追求成为经纪人、电影制作人或厨师经纪人,但我擅长帮助他人实现目标,尤其是在成名方面。我与Alice Cooper的合作始于一次偶然的机会,我们共同创造了历史,而不是等待历史的发生。我们利用各种手段制造话题,提升知名度,例如扔鸡肉事件。在与Anne Murray的合作中,我利用名人效应提升了她的知名度。我始终保持对工作的掌控力,并为艺术家规划未来,帮助他们避免陷阱。我与艺术家之间的合作建立在信任的基础上,而不是合同。处理名气比处理艺人的自我膨胀更难,因此我只会签约那些已经有一定知名度的艺术家。我将自己的工作视为一种艺术形式,并希望与那些欣赏我工作的人合作。我更看重事业的成功和团队的共同胜利,而不是单纯的金钱回报。在与厨师的合作中,我帮助他们提升了地位和收入,因为我看到了他们所受的不公平待遇。创造需求是我事业成功的关键,创造价值和获取价值之间需要平衡。我从达赖喇嘛和Roger Verge身上学到了同情心的重要性,他们总是先看到事物中的奇迹,才能对事物产生同情心。我会通过提醒自己所面临的问题是“第一世界问题”来让自己摆脱负面情绪。我对过去没有后悔,并认为自己所做的一切都是命中注定。 Shane Parrish: (问题引导,访谈过程中的提问总结)
