Short conversational monologue advising that constantly saying “yes” to every opportunity can hurt a creative’s business. The speaker notes creatives often accept excessive work to build portfolios, but beyond a point this becomes a bottleneck that reduces effectiveness and may harm long-term outcomes.
You know, I think a lot of people, especially me, I mean, everybody does it, but it's like, hey, I want to say yes to everything that's going to make me more money, when in reality the opposite is true, you know? Yeah, well, I think especially for creatives, it's like you want to, you want as much work as you can, like, possibly can or have to show for, for your portfolio and stuff. But there's definitely a point, I think, in people's careers where it's like, you know, more of a bottleneck than, yeah, they're not so 100%.
