What: Creatives must regularly accomplish the seemingly impossible. The list of miracles expected of creatives (both freelance and otherwise) includes:
-Expand creative skills but still take care of business
-Spend sometimes overwhelming hours on clients’ projects and still devote healthy
amounts of time to family, friends, and self
-Handle restrictions, roadblocks and rejections with style and grace
What’s way more important than work is what you do when you’re not working. Clearing your head makes you more effective and efficient.
This event will cover:
-The best way to prioritize your day (it’s not necessarily what you think)
-Tips to spark creativity and develop creativity
-How to shift mental gears
-Developing a knack for staying cool
