What makes a good musician, writer or illustrator?We're told that it's practice. Put in the time and you'll become a master. But how many technically-masterful creative hometown heroes do you know that never even got close to making it?Yes. They can shred the guitar like Hendrix. They can draw photorealistic portraits. They can write with perfect grammar and command a vast vocabulary.They've put in their 10,000 hours...And technically their craft is perfect...But the art isn't “good”.So if it's not about practice, passion, talent or skill, what's the real foundation of great creative work? What's it actually all about?I believe the secret is hiding in plain sight, right under your nose and quite literally at the tip of your tongue but if you don't know where to look for it you'll never find it!In this episode I want to share the idea that completely reinvented how I see creative work and my own creative super powers, and how I used this idea to develop a 6 Step process for unlocking your true creative business potential.SHOW NOTESIRA GLASS - THE TASTE GAPhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2wLP0izeJEChevy Chase The Washington Post Artlehttps://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2018/lifestyle/chevy-chase-cant-change/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.7c235246f80e----CREDITSSupport Creative Pep Talk on Patreon: www.patreon.com/creativepeptalkThanks to Yoni Wolf and the band WHY? for our theme music.Thanks to Alex Sugg for our soundtrack!www.alexsugg.comMastering by Chris Graham MasteringCheck out Chris' Six Figure Home Studio Podcasthttps://www.thesixfigurehomestudio.com/podcast/----SPONSORSWIXThis week's episode is brought to you by Wix.com With Wix, the web your playground.
