Show Notes
Nick Ririnui has spent much of his life behind the drum kit, building a career around music, performing and teaching. In this conversation, Nick and I talk about what it takes to make music a career: discipline, repetition, focus, investing in yourself, work-life balance, wealth, and why doing the boring work consistently can become one of your biggest advantages. Nick also shares his journey from working as a chef while building his music career to eventually making a living doing something he genuinely loves. If you’re interested in music, discipline, finding work you enjoy or building a life around something you’re passionate about, there’s plenty in this one. 🎙️ @themileextra – Health, Wealth & Happiness The hard way is the easy way. 📧 Subscribe to The Mile Extra newsletter: https://themileextra.beehiiv.com/
