Biz advice as a creative 

• Put in a little work when you can, over time, until you see what stacks up. Then run with that. 

• Live life fully while in “the unknowns” (during the lost/confused years) to fill up your experience for the future. Learn yourself and what your strengths and weaknesses are during this time; observe what you naturally enjoy and gravitate toward in life and try to integrate all of that into “your busine$$”. After enough time, living the doing, and observation of you being yourself, it will all become clear (much like sand falling through a full sifter). The pretty shells are what is left, and simultaneously what was there all along. Your gifts to the world are the shells. 

• Mingle in the network (& out of it) get to know other creatives and business owners
