Three Phases of a Creative Career

Liked The Arc of the Practical Creator – More To That (More To That)

[Y]ou must accept this harsh truth: You are trading away your creative potential for fiscal security. There’s no nice way to put it. Anyone who spends a majority of their working life in an unchallenging environment cannot cultivate the clarity of mind required to bring out the best in themselves.

Listened to Being Boss Podcast “All About Value”

Listened It’s all about VALUE | Making a Business Podcast, a Being Boss Production from Being Boss

How to start a business based on your values, have a long-term business vision, & how to overcome the fraudy feelings for product-based business owners.

Liked the notion of thinking through what you want your day to look like as a way to design your business. Also like the idea of thinking longer term, like ten years out, about what you want your life and business to look like.
