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

Hi Chad, what makes you happy? Why?
The only thing that truly makes me happy and gives me the most peace is when I’m around my loved ones and all those who are closest to me, because it helps me realize how blessed I am to be living under a circumstance where my family and those I care deeply for are healthy and safe. This brings me peace of mind that is hard to gain from other things in life

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I decided to pursue music as a career early on in high school because of how strong my passion for writing songs is and was at the time. Writing became a therapeutic practice for me and my love for music helped ignite a burning passion for wanting to pursue creating music for a living. At the time, I didn’t know exactly how that would look for me in the future but I started out by just writing and recording my own music to share with my family and friends. Since then, my path toward a career in the music business has been clearer than I ever thought possible.

Success is simply happiness. If you are happy and living every day doing what you love itching to strive towards your goals, then the love you have for your journey towards fulfilling your ambitions is a true measurement of success. For some people, it’s one thing and for others, it’s another, but for me I see success as proving to myself that everything I dream and strive for is indeed possible because of my love for the journey it takes to get there.
