We sometimes get so wrapped up in our business that we risk losing our grip on the things that really matter: health, happiness and those who love us.Robert Hagearty died on May 28th in the company of his family and friends after a courageous 6 month battle with cancer. The man whose life’s work was the definition of sardonic was saying, “This just in: You’re not going to get out of this alive!!” Zevon didn’t mean life is short go get more sales.
In an interview with David Letterman, both knowing Zevon’s days were numbered, Letterman asked what he had learned about life: Looking straight through the camera lens into every soul watching, Zevon said, “Enjoy every sandwich!”
In preparing for death, Zevon had one very important thing to say, especially to small business owners. Having penned songs like my favorite, “Werewolves of London,” and the now ironic, “Life’ll Kill Ya,” Zevon was an independent artist working without a net, passionately creating products in hopes of finding customers who would appreciate and pay for his wares.
