The Secret to Great Creative: REPEAT
Ira Glass shares wisdom about what to do, “when you know your work is crap.”
NPR’s Ira Glass has been publishing videos on YouTube of late on the general topic of Storytelling. The most recent of these posts, Storytelling #3 (http://youtube.com/watch?v=-hidvElQ0xE) is specifically focused on the elusive art of the ART—how to go from being ok, or even good at what you do, to becoming GREAT.
Glass truly is a master storyteller, and this interview is welcome encouragement for anyone endeavoring to achieve goals that feel often out of reach. Truly fine art, or truly fine work of any kind is a long road—and a tedious one, and one fraught with setbacks and frustrations. This is true of art, music, management, construction, writing, program development,—every endeavor that requires creativity. To succeed and arrive at the greatness you know you can achieve, you need to be tenacious and driven and focused, and in it for the looooong haul.
