I am announcing a workshop to be held at the Sunset Hill Inn again.
If you want some wise mentor to sit you down and tell you how to make it in the art biz, or any other biz, you need Lead the Field Every week brings a slew of new business "how to books", and none of them replace anything that can be found in Lead the Field. Art is a small business, whether you are running a shoe store, or a gallery, or a department store, the principles remain the same. I can thank Earl for helping me get my act together and make a living as an artist. I don't know of any book that had the effect on me, of these tapes. So many of the unexamined ideas and preconceptions I had, were discarded as Earl explained what the world was about. If you want to earn more as an artist, start here.Įarl laid it all out in an orderly and reasoned, optimistic and nurturing way. Before Earl, I didn't understand why some guys made a living and I didn't, now I learned the score. If you have a problem with that, maybe you should teach, or work in Hollywood or design things for a company that hands you a check every week. Others did the business for them, I have had to do my own. My father was a doctor and so were all his friends, no one taught me how the world in general, and the business world in particular, worked. It is a down to earth, no mumbo-jumbo course in sales and self growth for the real world. Here's where I learned a whole lot of the attitude that made this possible. I am not the end all, be all in the art biz, far from it, but I can make a living. When it arrived, I put it on, and it changed the whole game for me. But because it had been recommended so highly by this big time artist, I bought it.
Ordinarily a series of instructional tapes by some geezer who was the radio voice of Sky King would not have got my attention.
I said no, I did not, and he wrote out for me an address, for the Nightingale-Conant company where I could order a set of inexpensive tapes of Earl Nightingale. I arrived at the time on which we had agreed, and he talked to me about painting and some production methods, and ways to get more efficiency in your painting. He was one of the best selling artists in that gallery. His enormous studio was filled with the paintings he was working on for a major gallery in New York. This fellow had a reputation for advising younger artists and I sought out his help. I decided I would visit an older and very successful artist who I knew.
I had a gallery in Rockport, a shoestring undercapitalized operation, and I wasn't making enough money to pay my bills., I was making some money, but not enough. I never saw that, and had no idea who he was until. Above is an old clip from when Earl had a television program. Postal Service Delivery Confirmation, each order is packaged in a new box with bubble wrap, and always your satification is guaranteed.Tonight I want to tell a personal story and give a recommendation for Earl Nightingales "Lead the Field".
Earl Nightingale - the "Dean of Development" - offers you a treasure trove of uplifting and insightful information like: * The importance of forgiveness * How "intelligent objectivity" can improve your professional life * The usefulness of constructive discontent Now it's your turn to bring positive changes to your own life, changes that will allow you to lead the field yourself! All books shipped within 24 hours with U. When you accept responsibility for your attitude, you accept responsibility for your entire life. It tells the world what you expect from it. It determines your actions, as well as the actions of others. In Lead the Field Earl Nightingale explains these guidelines: the magic word in life is ATTITUDE. Success is a matter of sticking to a set of commonsense principles anyone can master. It's not a matter of fate or the breaks you get or who you know. Success is not a matter of luck or circumstance. IF THE GRASS IS GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE.
