Free work lets your brain forget about the monetary value and gives you the option to focus on other things, however, at the same time this isn’t the invitation to say yes to every opportunity.

Often as creatives, we never feel like we’re getting paid what we’re worth. So throughout our creative journey, we feel like we say yes to things that feel beneath us and get paid less than what we believe is our worth but that shouldn’t deter you from free work.

Everyone wants this, you've probably read an article or two about how every billionaire starts their day and now you're just sitting there wondering, WTF? ...While reading, you realise you've woken up probably a bit too late and are now finding the motivation to get out of bed. Now, the same thought keeps looping, where the heck do I start? how do I get from here to THERE?  Getting THERE might be easier than you think, by creating small positive habits in your life and removing the time-wasters.

When growing up, being creative felt like it was some sort of black-magic people could conjure from nothing. It was described as something that comes to you in a dream forcing you to handle it ASAP at all costs no matter what time, day, or occasion. With this image of creativity in mind, it comes with inconsistencies, lots of guesswork or just plain winging it. Quantifying your creativity can directly correlate to your worth as a creative and how you could more accurately calculate your value, so today we're starting the conversation of how to quantify your creativity and how other people are doing it.

Why do people say it? And how is it different? Businesses fail, creatives fail, people fail - and it's normal. It's part of your journey. Sometimes, these words are used way too often without real context. So today, we want to help you deconstruct it so that in the future, it would help you understand when and why you would use such a term.
