  Speaker 1: It really is a pretty cool place to hang out. Arrow.net, A-R-R-O-E.net,
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: 21 different podcasts. Not just podcast episodes, we're talking about
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: full-fledged podcasts. Arrow.net, A-R-R-O-E.net. Enjoy your exploration. When it's difficult
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: to make up your mind, I mean, having that power
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: of choice is actually something that'll weaken a person's heart.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: On this episode, we're going to put focus on today's
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: mobile DJ, the party planners, performers, and side hustle players. Plus,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: making the choice to not make a choice, delegating everything
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: to someone else. My name is Arrow. Life is a
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: series of choices. I mean, who decides when you're not
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: making the right choice? And is it a fear of
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: things going wrong? The greatest lessons in life are often
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: lost inside hidden away attempts and concepts. Well, it's time
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: to reopen that heart. Having that power of choice is
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: your daily gift. On this highway, we're going to learn
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: how to trust mirages. What is the choice? How about
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: making the choice to be a mobile DJ in 2026?
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Are there any true performers still around, or is it
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: all about that quick side hustle? First, let's be very
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: clear about one thing. Being a mobile entertainer is a performance.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: It's very much a skill, and it's carefully crafted. But
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: there's still truly a big divide that's generating bad energy.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: There are two kinds of mobile DJs today. Those selling
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: a service with speakers, lights, music, press play, collect some
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: money and go home. You get the picture? For some DJs,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: it's about landing a gig to make that side hustle money.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Then there's the performer. Never a gig. Always a show.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: It's the art of studying a crowd, understanding music's history
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: and the confidence to change moods while scoring even a
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: bigger dance floor. So who's winning here? Well, it's the
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: experienced DJ. Anyone can play music. Not everyone can create
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: an emotional experience. Reading a room is so important. The
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: opportunity is there for both styles to DJ. But as
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: the person behind the music, you have to know what
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: your role is and becoming what they call the differentiator.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: That's where the DJ believes in their services. You know, quality,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: developing an identity, and standing up and standing out while
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: putting the people and the music way ahead of everything else.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Coming up next, making that choice to not make a choice? Ooh. Hey,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: thanks for coming back to the choice. Making that choice
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: to not make a choice. Yeah. Giving the decision to
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: other people. It's still seen as making a choice when
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: you give it to somebody else. Avoidance and not wanting
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: to deal with it. It's still making a choice. Trust
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: is also an issue. People have to trust whatever choice
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: you make, and hell yeah, there's always going to be
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: an indifference, which can lead to a fear of responsibility.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: Not owning the consequences. That's called passive surrender. Not fighting
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: for what you want. The important distinction is the intent.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: If you truly don't care about making a choice, delegation
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: is your only place to go. But, but, but, but, but.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: If you do care and remain silent, oh, that's not
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: a good place. That's your passive surrender. Now the answers
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: rest in the hands of those who've picked up the
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: choice and walked with it. If you had just taken
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: the choice yourself, things would be much different. But too
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: many leaders don't want to be caught up holding on
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: to the baseball glove while the ball is somewhere up
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: in the sky and the sun is ever so bright.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: What's your choice? To make a choice or to settle
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: for another person's choice? And you once had that, but
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: you delegated it out. It's still making a choice, but
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: do you have the right to play along? That is
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: a choice. I'm Errol, and that's what I was writing
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: while the sun was waking up on a brilliant new day.
