God Will Walk Out

Posted by Eric at 1:20 pm. Filed under: General

While perusing the newly minted Huffington Post, I was impressed by this perspective from Quincy Jones, regarding fame.

All I know is that, on their own, human beings are not programmed to be able to handle that much fame, that much adulation, that much success. The only way to deal with something that overwhelming — even overwhelming success — is if you are spiritually centered.

If you believe that you deserve all that money and adulation, that’s a problem. If you believe you don’t deserve it, that’s also a problem. And if you don’t understand this, you’re in trouble.

I’ve been in the business 57 years and I’ve seen it over and over again. It’s all about trusting a higher power; believing in divinity. It’s about cause and manifestation. Cause being God’s job, manifestation clearly being our job. The moment success leads you to say, “I’ll take it from here, God,” God’s reply will be, “Be my guest.” And God will walk out of the room.

Also, as a side note, I’m not sure what it says about my “hipness” - but I don’t recognize most of the names on this new celebrity group blog. Maybe I should peruse the tabloids at the supermarket a bit more next time I’m there.
