After a difficult month, I am happy to say that my new year’s resolution is still holding. In years past, I allowed so many things to stand in the way of my new year’s resolutions and my goals. Publishing is always a little intimidating. It is not the easiest thing to put a creation out for public scrutiny. I mentioned this to an artist friend, who feels the same about his paintings. However, he pointed something out that I hadn’t considered. Every piece of art, no matter what form, is criticized. Each piece gathers critics, a few who hate it, fewer admirers who love it or the greatest number who are completely indifferent to it. Once the creation is out there, the only thing an artist can do is to start the next project.
Perhaps we can use the criticisms to change how we do that next creation in order to grow the numbers of admirers. I suppose the lesson is, try to target your market, satisfy the creator inside, present it and then move on. It’s the Printing business all over again. I’m always learning from the truths of past lessons and experiences.
Well, I need to get to work so I can reach the next goal.
I hope your goals are working out even better than mine for the year.
Until next time,
Jene
