Today’s episode is a little subdued. Stripped down. Straight talk. Just you and me.
We’re going deep into one of the biggest secrets I’ve learned about photography (or really ANY craft). If you’re looking to stand out, innovate, or generally get new and fresh ideas, this episode is for you.
In this episode:
* Take your art to the next level by adding something outside of its inherent form. An example would be if you’re a photographer, try adding text like stories or poetry that helps connect with your image.
* Use Edward de Bono’s design technique to harness creativity on demand by taking elements from a completely disparate subject and injecting it into your art.
* If you don’t want to be treated like a commodity, don’t act like one.
Enjoy!

0:08.9 | That's right, the Chase Service Live show here on Creative Live. And guess what? Super special show today. |
0:13.6 | No thought leaders, no entrepreneurs, no top creatives, just me. But I want to share something very special. And that special thing is what I believe has been a breakthrough concept for me as both a creator and an entrepreneur. |
0:28.6 | We know those are the same things these days. |
0:30.6 | And well, here's the punchline. |
0:32.6 | I'll give you the punchline first and then a little backstory. |
0:34.6 | The punchline is that we as creators, we as entrepreneurs, we are stronger when we do two things. |
0:41.2 | Thing one is look way more inside of ourselves for answers |
0:46.4 | and a way to be different and not just better, |
0:49.4 | but different and unique and play up our individual strengths |
0:52.9 | and also beyond the industry that we're in. |
0:56.5 | So if you're in photography, how can you look to design, to architecture, to fashion, to all |
1:02.5 | these other things? And these two things looking more into yourself, if you remember a recent |
1:08.3 | podcast I did about my creative mornings talk, that is a very, |
1:12.4 | very powerful thing. And thing too, looking beyond your industry. Now, here's one of the things |
1:17.9 | that I think it's going to blow your mind is this, what I'm doing right here is living, I'm walking |
1:23.0 | this talk because this show exists. It was founded eight years ago. And it exists specifically because |
1:30.7 | it was my goal to reach beyond the photography industry. The first couple of guests that I had on |
1:36.3 | the show were photographers. And then I did a dramatic shift. I had entrepreneurs. I had musicians. |
1:41.7 | I had designers, people who were not in the industry. |
1:45.8 | And honestly, I think two things. |
1:47.2 | One, that's one of the reasons that the show flourished because it was showing inspiration from outside an industry. |
