James Altucher interviews the world's leading peak performers in every area of life. But instead of giving you the typical success story, James digs deeper to find the "Choose Yourself" story - these are the moments we relate to... when someone rises up from personal struggle to reinvent themselves. The James Altucher Show brings you into the lives of peak-performers: billionaires, best-selling authors, rappers, astronauts, athletes, comedians, actors, and the world champions in every field, all who forged their own paths, found financial freedom and harnessed the power to create more meaningful and fulfilling lives.
Wynton Marsalis is one of the best and most well-known jazz musicians ever. I had him on to talk about creativity. He's made over 80 albums, sold over 7 million records, and won 9 Grammys (all unbelievable). He even won the Pulitzer Prize in music, which is the 1st for jazz. Now Wynton's the Managing Director & the Artistic Director for Jazz at Lincoln Center. Wynton's whole life is about being creative. He's learned how to transform art from its existing state into something entirely new. That's a skill. And that's what we'll dive into in this conversation: how you, too, can become a master of your own creativity. Show Notes: Read Wynton Marsalis' article in The New York Times, "What Jazz Is and Isn't" And listen to some of his music on "United We Swing: Best of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Galas" Check Out Wynton's Website Be part of Jazz at Lincoln Center Community via jazz.org Autobiography of a Yogi by P.
