KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Excitement is the most effective marketing. When you’re pumped about what you offer, your audience can’t help but get on board.

  • Everything is figure-outable. Don’t let a lack of know-how prevent you from pursuing your dreams; you can develop the skills you need as you go.

  • Reserve time to create art for the joy of it. 

  • Don’t let fear of failure stop you. It’s better to try, fail, and have a learning experience along the way than to play life safe and never grow. Failure is not the worst thing that could happen to you!

QUESTION
Robert asks, “Which plays a bigger role in your art process: vision or ability? Do you match your vision to your skill level, or increase your skills to meet your vision?”

To succeed as a creative entrepreneur, you must be vision-driven first. You won’t know how to do everything right out of the gate, but the only way to learn is by trying. When your vision is big enough, you can increase your abilities a little at a time until you reach your goal.
