The 50 Things Every Creative Should Know

Found some really insightful points made by the people at www.the-50.org  

The main 5 points that I picked up where :




1. YOU ARE NOT THE FIRST
There are very few ‘firsts’ these days. Countless others have started studios, freelanced and requested internships. It can be done. #the50







2 . THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE BETTER
Regardless of how good you are, there will always be someone better. It’s surprisingly easy to waste time worrying about this. #the50







3. THE PATH TO WORK IS EASIER THAN YOU THINK
To get into the industry you need just three things: great work, energy and a nice personality. Many forget the last attribute.#the50


4. LISTEN TO YOUR INSTINCTS 

If your work doesn’t excite you, then it won’t excite anyone else. It’s hard to fake passion for mediocre work – scrap it. #the50 





5. DO AS MANY INTERNSHIPS AS POSSIBLE

Internships are a financial burden, but they are vital. They let you scope out the industry and find the roles that suit you best. #the50
