Thank You and You're Welcome

As some of you may have noticed, my posts during the weekends may be a little weak. I just don't have as much time to spend on my blog as I do during the week. Today I'll just leave you with a little excerpt taken from Kanye West and J. Sakiya Sandifer's book Thank You and You're Welcome


There are some people who try to put themselves into a position just so you'll owe them something. Their entire M.O. is: "I did this for you, now you have to do something for me.

Don't let people think you owe them anything. That puts you in a position of weakness. If they choose to give, it's their choice.

For example, I asked someone to do a part on my album. The artist agreed and said, "I'm not even going to charge you," as if he was doing me a favor, "But, when I'm working on my album, I want you to do a verse for me."

I responded with, "NO! I want to pay you for what I asked you to do and we'll talk about that verse when the time comes. Thank You and You're Welcome!"
