My studio consists of a cigar box with all my drawing and writing implements inside it. As owner of a professional pressure washing company, I don't own my own pressure washer or for that matter, not much of anything else in the way of equipment.
I am a reading enthusiast. My intake of books, articles, speakers, podcasts, etc are overwhelmingly self improvement and business related subjects but the fact of the matter is that over the last nine or ten years, since I've been self-employed, not much has changed. I'm no closer to my aspiring goals today than I was when I first began this endeavor in 2011. When it comes to being a professional artist it's been even longer; closer to twenty years.
I'm a platitude junkie, but here I have to admit that the "platitude", in the truest sense of the word, is a harmless oft quoted, inoffensive slogan used by spineless life coaches or housewives who sell scented candles or essential oils from their kitchen table. My direction has gone from harmless platitudes toward cynical sarcasm.
I'm not a "born entrepreneur" so if I ever hope to be a good example to my generation of working stiffs who desire something more, then much needs to change with me.
