“If this idea… the idea of overcoming one fear a day scares you, then keep reading.”
I wrote this line three years ago.
I was doing a photo challenge. I asked Chase Jarvis, one of the best photographers in the world and the founder of Creative Live, “What should I do?”
I wanted to know how to take a good photo.
He asked me what I liked.
I said, “Sad people.”
So he told me to shoot through the lens of “connection.” So I went inside. And looked for my inner compass.
I went to eat.
Then I saw the man. He was a balding guy in his 60s waiting to be served. He told me he just arrived after a 17-hour trip from Italy. He said, "I am tired."
And I shot him.
I shot him before my daughter left for college. Before I became a stepdad. Before stand-up comedy. Before Trump. Before #metoo. Before phone addiction (sort of). Before a lot of things.
“That photograph is evidence,” Chase said. “It’s evidence that we’re all creative… Wildy.”
But not everyone believes that.
Because they’ve blocked it for too many years.
But you can get it back.
Chase explains how in his book, “Creative Calling: Establish a Daily Practice, Infuse Your World with Meaning, and Succeed in Work + Life.”
And he explains the DNA of creativity on my podcast. Here’s a list of everything we talk about. Including quotes from Chase and tips on how to start your daily creative process today:
