The Final Page

Listen to "The Final Page" on Spreaker. We've all been in those meetings where those making decisions put time stamps on unmet expectations. I'm shocked that society hasn't labeled us the Google generation or The Amazon Prime community. Both super feed our need of wanting things now. This makes us want all things delivered the same way. The idea of being part of a process is time not spent well. Too much energy and thought went into creating what we believed had the potential of being a success. But that's not how the real world works. That time stamp means goals will be met and if there isn't success those in charge of the process are tossed. Getting back to a life of respecting time is a tough cookie to bite into. It's not just bosses and coworkers putting you through unheard of amounts of stress, so are your friends and family. We want answers and end results right now. The idea of developing a process is out of touch with the times. I write daily to document the process. I need that road map to speak to the inner core of this creative journey. To show it respect as well as gratefulness. As much as the outside shell demands success the inner voice has to remain in control and trust filled by way of taking a firm grip on the purpose of there being a process. There are so many choices in today's everyday world that the average traveler has no idea that you have a product. Not unless you've emptied your pockets and every last cent has been spent on marketing. Even that isn't enough. When we shoot for the horizon without a process mistakes will be made. How many around you accept that? I've heard it a million times, "We got into the mess and we can get out." Pretty soon those messes become your image. Why invest in that? Getting back to the process. Painfully it can happen. The end result may not even be what you envisioned. Through the process you learned by way of experience which makes creating the light bulb a little easier. Trust your failures. Learn from the stumbles. Unmask your fear filled self and take one more step into the process of success.
