Where are YOUR students?

“The journey of art starts with self acceptance, the subjective. Once you. accept your self you can move on to the objective, the highest stage, which is the acceptance of others”. -Jeff Koons, American Artist.

Seth Godin shares that the most important person to market to is ourselves.

Who are you talking to when you talk to yourself about what you do and how do you come to terms with the subjective that Koons talks about?

As soon as you can adopt the posture that you are needed to do a generous act, that someone in worst shape than you is drowning and you have something to offer, it shifts from a selfish act that is shameful to a generous act that is making a difference.

Once you realize that there’s someone who would miss us if we were gone, then you can get out of your head. and realize this isn’t about getting into the limelight (or away from it) and to the idea that someone else needs us.

Start asking “where are my students? Where are the people who are on a similar journey whom I can help?”

All you’re doing is just helping them get to where they want to go.
