paul arden bitch slaps my brain…among other writers and speakers in the creative field
It has been a while since I have written about things that motivate or inspire me. After graduating college with my BFA in Graphic Design and moving forward into a full time position I became a creative dud. Although I had been counseled many times about the workings of the job force and been introduced to them through internships and professional development programs my imagination shut the door and locked it.
Lucky for me…I can be a bit stubborn. I broke down that door and began reading again. Reading A LOT. I have also been watching TED talks, looking at artwork, looking at my old artwork and past writing. Shwing! I’m back on track. Motivated to do what I like to do best: learn.
Now, when I say I’m back on track I do not mean I am Carla Shoopman, Graphic Design Extraordinaire! Probably more the the contrary, but Paul Arden’s It’s Not How Good You Are, It’s How Good You Want To Be gave me hope.
Now that I have briefed you on my silent months, I will now entice you with a link to buy the book, It\’s Not How Good You Are, It\’s How Good You Want To Be and will be back to write about something Carla-ish soon.
