Skillset is more important than popularity

 

Early on I learned that skillset is more important than popularity. In this life of social media and being influenced by the internet on a mass scale we can forget the importance of being skilled. Money will come and the job you want will come. But if you are not prepared for when those moments do come you will not be able to match the level required.

Money is good but eventually it will run out. The day to day grind of being in tune with your craft and getting better than someone who is just focused on the quick money. Focusing on the quick money will hinder you from being truly successful. But I know each of us has a different view of success.

My 2 years of posting on Instagram and new things

When I first started posting my calligraphy work to instagram I had first the idea of I was going to do it  just for a year and I’ll be done. But the more I kept at it and the better I started to get I could not quit. The reason I did not quit after a year was because I learned the saying show up for two years and then people will start to notice you.

Well It has been working out pretty good for me. At first I was a little upset when I did not see growth. But you know what I am going to keep going no matter what. Because what I do with it will be up to me. On November 10th that is the date when I will be launching my store to sell calligraphy prints and etc.

And one more thing i will be starting to post youtube videos in about a week or so. I have currently 4 videos queued up to post. So make sure you follow me on twitter, instagram, facebook, twitter youtube
