[Akira The Don, GaryVee - The Clouds And The Dirt lyrics]
Something I've been thinking about a lot
It’s just this notion of
The clouds and the dirt meaning
I don't spend any time
On the things that don't matter
And what doesn't matter is basically
Everything in between
The overall vision and strategy
And the real knowledge of it
Clouds the clouds are the high-end
Philosophy and beliefs
That are at the heart of
Everything I am personally
And everything I do professionally
Personally, it's really simple family first
Professionally, it’s not that much different
99% of what we deal with doesn't matter
If you religiously follow just
A few core philosophies
That mean most to you
Everything else will naturally
Fall into place
Dirt being an actual practitioner
It's the hard work
Being a good spouse, parent, son, sibling
And friend
Professionally, it is knowing my craft
I'm super not interested in being fancy
I'm willing to work
I'm never gonna forget what I'm about
And I do unscalable
Not the right use of my time shit
50% of my day every day for
The rest of my life
'Cause I love the fucking clouds and dirt
I love the fucking clouds and dirt
Clouds, dirt, clouds
I love the fucking clouds and dirt
Clouds and dirt clouds, dirt, clouds, dirt
People don't understand is
That the dirt is so important
Because unless you actually have the skills
Your reputation or what you
Did the day before or who your mama is
Isn't gonna impact your success
Your success is gonna be
Predicated by the dirt
And the dirt is a mixture
Of having the work ethic
To get your hands dirty
And then the experience predicated
From actually doing the work
If you're not working on your craft
If you got too fancy to
Keep doing your thing, you lose
That's why I love comedians that
Still go to small clubs
Seinfeld in his prime Just going to bullshit
Clubs in the middle of America
And working on his craft it's dirt
It's never getting too fancy
To get away from what got you
There in the first place
That's how people lose
Clouds and dirt
I love the fucking clouds and dirt
Clouds, dirt, clouds
I love the fucking clouds and dirt
Clouds and dirt clouds, dirt, clouds, dirt
There’s too many people who are
Average at what they do at what they do
And then confused by their average results
Everyone has their own definition
Of clouds and dirt
But if there's any advice that
I can offer you that will change the entire
Trajectory of your career
It's to start pushing at both edges (Bucko)
Raise the bar of your business philosophy
Dig deeper into your craft (Get after it)
You want to make sure
That you're equally an architect and a mason
You've got to be able to simultaneously
Think at high level and get your hands dirty
You gotta get after it
Clouds and dirt clouds and dirt
Clouds, dirt, clouds
I love the fucking clouds and dirt
Clouds and dirt clouds, dirt, clouds, dirt
A lot of times people don't
Have one or the other
They're too stuck in the minutiae
To take a picture
They don't know how to navigate
Or they get it philosophically
But they don't have the skills
Or the appetite to actually be
Able to do it right
Know the details, know the philosophy
Then don't worry about all the
Minutiae in the middle
The politics, the process
All the crap that does not matter
And that's it, just spend all my time
In the clouds and the dirt
It’s just this notion of
The clouds and the dirt meaning
I don't spend any time
On the things that don't matter
And what doesn't matter is basically
Everything in between
The overall vision and strategy
And the real knowledge of it
