Time management for entertainment pros: instagram.com/reel/CvzrZlzrh…
In the 1980’s console manufacturers imposed all kinds of fees on game developers… … of course, it was totally counter productive. The failure was to regard the whole creative ecosystem, hardware and software, as one entity. How can we avoid this in live entertainment?
You’re not that money oriented, but your landlord is… … and the venue might be. … and your performers probably are. What you can do is focus on what having more money could mean, and what you could do with it, rather than the money itself.
Managers, agents, agencies! Lend me your ears… … and eyes. instagram.com/reel/CvhJNHXI_…

If you regularly find yourself torn between an important work activity and an equally or even MORE IMPORTANT life thing - you need to consciously examine your values so the choice becomes easy. Don't struggle. Choose.

The powerful habit successful entertainers use to fast track results they’ve never previously enjoyed. Stephen Covey said it best: “Begin with the end in mind.” Even with small tasks, ask: “What will this look like when it’s done?”
As a solo entertainer, you’re really good at juggling lots of different tasks. However, sometimes things go awry. Too much to do, not enough time. What are the circumstances where you move from managing well, into overwhelm? What COULD you do to prevent this in the future?
3 reasons your entertainment work goals might suck: 1. You have a WANT not a GOAL. 2. Your goal might be too LOW RESOLUTION to function as a goal. 3. It’s something you think SHOULD be a goal, but you’re not actually inspired by it. Set clear meaningful goals. GO FOR IT!

1 common mistake entertainers make, even when they have a goal, is mis-representing challenges to themselves. Is there anything in your way that you are exaggerating or downplaying? What could happen if you made a new, more accurate, assessment of the challenge? #entertainers
