We’re continuing the conversation this week on how to make progress in your art business.

Ros and Laura talk about the importance of playing the long game no matter your persona. They chat about the fact that good things take time, no matter how hard that pill is to swallow. Ros shares her experience with approaching dreams with high energy and being reminded that sustainability and balance are essential to long term success in art business.

Ros says “It's really important to set your goals, to know what you want, to allow yourself to dream, make plans to get of closer to those dreams but it is OK for your growth to be a little bit slower than your heart desires it to be so that you can maintain that growth and continue growing your art business in a steady way that is sustainable.”

Laura raises the topic of perfectionism and points out its dark side and how it can hold you back from success. The “all or nothing” approach, “perfect or not at all” can really wreak havoc and stop our dreams from taking shape.

Laura suggests casting perfectionism and comparison aside and “really tuning into that gut feeling and that intuition. Setting goals around not what you feel like you should be doing to be a successful creative business owner but instead thinking about what sort of lifestyle I want and then identifying actions that can move towards that aligned goal.”

Ros and Laura touch on many other topics in this chat:
