1 hr 4 min - S6 Ep66: David Biro: Art Fuels the Soul; Go Fail & Fail Hard... Never Quit; Intelligence Connects Us Together
"Art is the soul of humanity," contends David Biro, a Cleveland large scale artist. As the founder of "Midnight Art Club," David believes that art should be an experience, because it draws people into the art and together.
Throughout Cleveland, David and his team have created exhibits that beautify the city, and he recently has taken his artwork down to Florida, where he builds and creates on the spot.
During our conversation, David makes strong recommendations for those who are looking to advance their lives. "Work three jobs, drink tons of coffee, and never quit."
Turning ideas into action is the quality that David believes allows him (and others) to perform well. Without action, ideas are mere thoughts.

About Chats with Clark
From the publisher's feed
"I'm a mindset guy," I often tell people when describing the content of the podcast. During a Chats with Clark episode, we will engage a conversation about mindsets and ideas that actually matter in the world. The rationale behind our actions, the "why" in what we do, brings us together. It's those mindsets that affect our view of the world.
At the end of each episode, I hope that all of us are better than we were before thinking about the topics of that day. Thank you for tuning in!
