New Year, New Opportunities

We’re a full week into the new year. What new opportunities have you already begun creating for yourself?

Often, we as creatives get stuck in a mindset that if we are faithful to creating the right environment for an opportunity to come, then it will come when the universe is ready for us to have it.

I don’t believe that. I believe opportunity comes PER what we prepare, execute, and repeat.

This, Not That

A tool that I have used for many years to help brands further define their identity is one that I believe we could all use in our own creative work.

“This, Not That” is simply a small list of protocols usually, but limited to, terminology. For brands, it’s important to be consistent in messaging, both internally within the organization and externally in market messaging. Unfortunately, like many creatives, not many organizations define the lane of their lingo or practices. This is where a small, repeatable list comes in handy so well.

Begin With The End In Mind

One of the things that often keeps creatives from doing their best work is completing their best work. Eventually, they lose focus, get overwhelmed with what’s next, and give up. There’s a way through it, but they can’t see it.

The problem lies before the creation ever began. They never had a plan on how they were going to see this thing through. They rely on their creative whimsy and woo to pull them through and justify the end results not being what they imagined as a turn of mystic events by the creative Gods. In reality, if we can plan the work and then work the plan we will hit the originally intended target more than we are currently.

There’s a simple method to this planning: Begin with the end in mind.
