The whole idea about people who are genius can only share something or contribute something to others is gone. You will get there, but in the meantime, try out different things, experiment, start many projects and stick to what works. So, try experimenting and testing out different things when at the start. People are generally too busy and they don't care about your work unless it's good. Once you start gaining attention, you can't experiment a lot. When it comes to creative work, limitations mean freedom. Placing constraints can bring you back into the creative zone. It's the things we choose to leave out.įiguring out what to leave out will get you way ahead. So, I am trying my best to get exercise and get proper sleep.Ĭreativity is subtraction - Creativity is not the thing we choose to put in. Yet, doing whatever we can with the time and opportunity available is the way to move forward. That leads to me not exercising and looking like a potato. My work has rotating shifts that make it harder for me to have a sleep routine. I am one to talk because I am not taking care of my health. We are ignoring it like our bodies are fine. It led us to get attached to our screens and not worry about our health. This was making us feel guilty if we are not working all the time. We must work on side hustles, work on vacations, build a constant relationship with our audience, and a lot more. The trend nowadays is that we must always be working. The Ordinary + Extra Attention = The Extraordinary.So, here are 8 powerful lessons I took from the Steal Like An Artist Trilogy: Here, I share the 8 lessons that made me realize and reflect on my own process.
I definitely recommend reading all three books to take the lessons that will be helpful for you. These lessons are not only important for artists but also for everyone. There are some timeless lessons writer Austin Kleon shares in these books.
I have read all three books from the Steal Like An Artist Trilogy. After reading this, I am confident about using ideas from others, sharing my work online, and how to keep going. There was always a little hindrance before mentioning the person to credit. Over the past 2 years, I have always felt a little bit of discomfort stealing ideas and using them to build upon them. But honestly, it was just a part of learning. I was scared to share some of my writings online as it was personal or not good. I was forcing myself to do a lot to be seen as something or sometimes expected people to see me as a noun before even doing the verb. Over the past 3 months, I have read the Steal Like An Artist trilogy which has opened me up to think about my hobbies differently.
