Every creative has moments in their career that are moments of celebration, moments of pure excitement. And usually, when I talk to artists about those moments, they think about the big career milestones: that huge award that they won or were nominated for, the incredible review they received, the prestigious fellowship they were awarded, the amazing project they won. These are all big, wonderful career events in your life as an artist business owner that absolutely should be celebrated. But they aren’t the only moments that deserve celebration. The problem with focusing only on those big, external indicators of career success is that they are almost always things controlled by other people, which by definition means they are rare and unpredictable. Instead, I want to encourage you to focus on celebrating the small wins in your creative life. After all, doing the work is the win. Let’s discuss.
In this episode, you will learn:
- What “wins” to celebrate in your life as an artist businessowner.
- How focusing on small wins can help you to have a mindset of joy and excitement around your creative work.
- Why focusing only on the final outcome causes you to worry about the wrong things.
- How being a creative entrepreneur is similar to being a medieval merchant.
- What it means to “send out ships” in your creative life.
- What it looks like in your life as an artist to focus on what you can control.
