“The most important thing in business is honesty, integrity, hard work, family….never forgetting where we came from. See, you are what you are in this world. That’s either one of two things…..either you're somebody ... or you're nobody. “ - Frank Lucas American Gangster

✍️ 4yrs ago , Andre Young aka Dr. Dre became the wealthiest person in the history of the rap game, after selling his Beats by Dre headphone company to Apple.

The end result netted enough money for Dr. Dre to legitimately say he’s made a billion dollars in sales.

Can you imagine what it’s like to come from the gutters of inner-city America to the top of the ivory tower?

Dr. Dre’s story is amazing.

He’s one of the most inspiring people on the planet.

To overcome the hardships and adversities he’s had to take a certain type of mindset.

Dre brought innovation to the front lines of hip hop.

Matter of fact, he pioneered the West Coast gangster rap movement.

YOU MAY NOT AGREE WITH HIS LYRICS, BUT YOU CAN’T KNOCK HIS HUSTLE.

If you look at Dre’s life, there are a lot of lessons in resilience to be learned.

He’s been burned by record executives, best friends, and the list goes on.

Each one of these instances has led to more experience, which in turn led Andre Young to be able to execute a financial transaction like the one between Beats and Apple.

Let’s take a close look at some of these lessons and how you can apply them to your everyday life in business.

Set A Goal And Stick To It:

When Dre was young, he set a goal to bring the problems of inner-city kids to the forefront of mainstream media.

Which was not going to be easy, considering his songs included lyrics like “F*ck the Police.”

The mainstream music industry told him it would never work out.

Yet, he had a goal that existed with or without them.

Twenty years later, you can find him sticking to the same plan.

You Never Have To Stop Being You No Matter How Many People Try To Change You:

Can you imagine how many record executives must have said to Dre, “Hey man if you’ll tone it down with all the cussing, we can make you so much more money with airplay”?

But, despite the offer of making more money, he didn’t sell out.

He made them cave and come to him. This attests to Dre’s marketing ability, too.
