Today, I want to point you to a blog post by Mark Dykeman on the Lateral Action website/blog. Mark’s post “Why Creative Work is Like Making Magic” has a lot of relevance if you are interested in success.
While Mark talks about it from a Creative professional’s point of view (after all, that is the focus of lateral action), his points apply to personal success, career success, and business success.
It would do Mark’s post a disservice for me to try to restate his points here, but please make special note that knowledge, preparation, planning, rehearsal, and execution are fundamental to every success (personal and professional) that I am aware of.
And, please look over the Lateral Action blog (it’s one I follow). Their motto of “creativity + productivity = success” is a truism. If you are a Creative individual, it is one to follow. (If you’re not, it still has a lot of good information for you, but couched in language for Creatives.)
So, look it over. Then come back here and share with us your reactions.
