Creative Focus

Creative Focus


Perspective:

Most businesses die of indigestion, not starvation.

They try to do too much, too fast, too soon.


Action:

Focus on quality over quantity.

Limit active creative projects to what your team can execute with excellence, and complete one initiative before starting the next.

Success comes from doing a few things extraordinarily well rather than a handfull of things adequately.
