This is literally the lightbulb I had last week and it's been a game changer already in my mentality and focus for my business. This post has cemented my thought and I've saved it to come back to in the future when I know I'll get sucked into thinking I'm a creator first. I got to the end of my week and thought I'd done nothing and then I realised I had some real needle moving tasks for my business but because I hadn't shared that (or anything) on social media I felt that way. Such an important thing to keep a check on. Brilliant newsletter - thank you!
My copy of “A Coaching Business in a Book” arrived today. Sarah Short makes the same point that you do. I guess it is the distinction between creating as art/ hobby or creating marketing for your business or service.
Interesting timing! Yes totally art for arts sake is great and not everything should be monetised! Running a business just brings its own set of responsibilities and demands! Thanks for reading Helen
