The Things All Creators Must Know + Believe
One of my most popular, widely shared, and (so I'm told) most impactful blog posts is one I did a few years back called "The 10 Things All Creatives (That's You) Must Know," a collection of hard-won lessons I've learned from my 20+ years in the trenches as a creator. And although it's a few years old I feel more confident than ever about the timeless value of these lessons -- and so this week on the podcast I'm bringing you an audio version of that blog post. Here's a sneak preview of what you can look forward to:
* Experts aren’t the answer.
* Clients cannot tell you what they need.
* Don’t aim for ‘better’, aim for ‘different’.
* Big challenges create the best work.
* Aesthetic sensibilities actually matter.
* Simple is good.
* Make mistakes, learn quickly.
* “Value” is different from “price.”
* A-Gamers work with A-Gamers.
* Real artists create.
Enjoy!
