I know it has been a while since I last blogged again! But, work has picked up more and it puts a crunch on both my creative thinking and my time. I figured I would turn off the DVR long enough to head back to the office, crank the tunes and see what I come up with.
Lately, with my sales and accounts boosting on my full time job, I haven't had much time to focus on my design work. Which many would view as a good thing, I am sure. But, right now I am in that phase where I'm torn between what I am doing and what I would love to do. I've always been an advocate of making a career out of what you love to do!
While I am a good people person and do have the skills to be a good sales person, it is not what I love to do. I really would like to focus more on the design aspects of advertising than the sales part. In my current position I am more directed towards setting up new accounts and generating ad sales for those clients.
I am going to make a push to start doing more design work on the side and I am sure it will require less sleep and more caffeine. But, I never hit the lotto and I usually lose money when I go to the casino, so I have always known it wont be easy. What's the famous quote? "When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you will be successful." We will see how well I can take on both tasks.
I am not a huge fan of rap but I heard something a while back that inspired me so hopefully it will do the same for you. When 50 Cent was working on his movie "Get Rich Or Die Trying" he was also working on a new album and writing a book. When asked "When do you have time to sleep?" He responded, "Sleep? Sleep is for those people who are broke. I don't sleep, I got an opportunity to make a dream become a reality." If everyone could adopt this idea, including myself, life would be what it's meant to be!
