We had the good fortune of connecting with Gavis Dean and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Gavis, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
he thing is I always loved music. As a kid I would be day dreaming while listening to music and visualizing myself doing cool things. When I was a teenager I decided to started making my own music and become an Artist. So the love for the music was always there and I think over time as you keep progressing and evolving as a Person and as an Artist, you start to understand that the creative aspect is only a part of the whole picture.

I started learning more and more about the business side of things and that in order to run a sufficient brand, you need to have your business set up the right way. So the thought process for me personally was not a linear thing, as I started from a place of love and being all about the music and the art it self.

It really took me some time to start adapting a business state of mind and managing that with the creative aspect and keeping a balance between these two.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Music has always been my passion, it is what excites me the most to this day and over time I made the decision to make it a career.

With my art I like to tap into different Bags and express myself based on my mood at the moment. When I tap into my artistry and create, I want it to be from a pure place. I want it to be from my soul. As an Artist you are faced with many different Challenges and you have to see things from so many different perspectives.

So naturally I have to tap into other Bags when it comes to marketing, business, content and so on.
It’s really a complex process filled with many different layers. But I am thankful for it all.

That sounds Interesting! Can you talk more about your Mind-state while working?
The whole thing of running a Brand/being an Artist is a complex process made up of many different layers.

I focus on having my mind on point, calming myself and getting into a state of flow. I understood that it’s a marathon not a race, so it’s all about repetition. Many things you learn are only understood later on and as with everything, you need to keep doing them again and again.

I am a very reflective person, I take the time to think and to analyze myself, to understand myself as a person and as an artist. I observe my thought patterns, observe where they come from and how they influence me and my performance. Really it’s all about keeping yourself accountable on daily basis. This is a constant process and self improvement is a life long journey, so I just try to stay focused, improve myself and continue to work on my mission.

How has your Career being going recently?
I’m really thankful for how things have been going, I can feel the momentum.

I have learned from past mistakes and I look at certain things more objectively. More than ever, I feel like I’m doing what I’ve always done.
I stopped being so outcome driven and I focus more on the work and let the outcome catch up to me. I present myself authentically and I accept the fact that people will perceive me however they want to. I’m just showing up and doing what I am supposed to do.

How do people react to you?
It’s generally the case that when you present yourself, you will naturally get a variety of reactions.

I recently talked about this online with my fans, that when you build a name for yourself it triggers a variety of emotions in people, I see and understand this more than ever before. Some people see what you have and would like to be in your position, others adore you, while others belittle you and try to trick you out of your position.

Thankfully I’m used to this, that’s how it was even back before the music, I would always get a strong reaction from people.

What are your next goals?
I wanna expand my Name and my Brand, I want to reach new levels and accomplish more milestones.

I have a lot of new songs that I will be releasing and I always have my hands in new projects.

My overall goal is to make the Name „Gavis Dean“ even bigger and solidify myself world wide.

Lesh Go!
