How are you fixing yourself?



Or your company or your company’s processes.

A client us called us today and said an agency just resigned from one of their long term jobs and asked us if we would take over.

To be sure, it’s a nice client. So we asked a few questions. Why did the other agency resign from the job? What is the budget? Who will we be working with on the project?

Sometimes business partners can give you much needed feedback in their interactions with you. Especially when the action is a drastic one.

What could be wrong internally?

What are you hiding from?



When someone we need an answer from does not reply our email, it is convenient to just wait for an answer. After all, we have it on black and white. It’s there in the cyber forest, somewhere. It’s the responsibility of the recipient to reply us. 

Meanwhile things get delayed. When that happens it does not matter if it is because you did not receive a reply, it is someone else’s fault. 

Your role is to keep the project moving. That’s your responsibility.

Pick up the phone and call. Call till you get a firm answer to move your project forward.

What is real work?

Who do you listen to?



Branding, advertising, logo design, packaging design - these have now become spectator sports. Everyone’s a consumer of something, everyone sees ads, and they all have an opinion about what you have created.

Everyone can say something. But it’s who you listen to that matter.

Did they say anything substantial?

Are you closed?



Some people will remain forever where they are or regress. Never progress.
Not that they are stupid or anything. On the contrary, they are well read and learn a lot. 

Problem is they do not internalize what they learn and start to apply it.

Whether it is someone accumulating properties or a business owner deciding on the brand’s future.

They think they are open but they are not. They think they know but truly they do not. No matter how much you try to educate them. They may accept the lessons but they will never apply it. They will never act upon it.

They don’t get it.

How do you clear the mess?



First clear the mess in your head.

There are too many to-do lists floating in your head. Personal lists, work list, family list, hobby list, favours list, questions lists, things to buy list, long term dreams list, short term dreams list, financial lists, lists of lists. 

Park 30 minutes aside and have all these written down on ONE sheet of paper. If you really park time aside, 30 minutes may not even be enough. But once you commit to sitting down, you will likely spend more time doing the lists. 

Make a clear list and visit it often.

Can you see clearly now?

Are you making your job difficult?



Everyone wants to make their jobs easy. No one wants to do difficult things.

If your boss employed you to do the easy stuff then anyone else can replace you. Oh, but you do not want to be replaced.

If everyone tries to escape from the difficult tasks and you volunteered for it, then you are providing value. You are difficult to be replaced.

Look for the difficult things that can be done in your role. Find that hard to sell product and sell the crap out of it. 

You are in the company to do the tough jobs. You aren’t employed to do the easy job.

If you are employed to do the easy job, then you know you are easily replaceable. That’s a truth whether you like to listen to it or not.

How do you get strong?



Sometimes you feel the weight of the world is on your shoulders. At other times, you feel you can single-handedly lift the world.

Life’s like that. A little bit of each. In between these times, how you respond determines how strong you can get.

How do you lift yourself?
