From Towering to Tumbled: A Lesson from Tower Records
What a Fallen Giant Can Teach You About Staying Strong, Relevant, and Resilient
Remember Tower Records? It was the place. Vinyl, cassettes, CDs, listening stations... aisles and aisles of music. You’d walk in and feel like you were stepping into a world built just for your soul’s soundtrack.
Started in 1960, Tower was on top of the world. But by 2006? Gone. Just like that.
What happened?
They didn’t adapt.
They ignored the signs.
They watched digital music rise and thought, “Nah, people will always want CDs.”
Oops.
Here's the thing: your body works the same way.
Ignore the signs… the stiffness, the soreness, the fatigue… and you might be headed for your own personal “bankruptcy.”
But here's the good news:
Unlike Tower, you can still adapt.
You can change the game.
You can get up, stretch, move, breathe.
You can trade in breakdown for breakthrough.
You can reinvent yourself, starting today.
Because you’re not a relic.
You’re a classic in the making.
Action Tip: Take 2 minutes right now. Stand up. Breathe deeply. Reach for the sky. Then reach for your toes. That little move? That’s your comeback tour starting.
