Why It’s Essential To Create And Not Just Consume

We consume a vast amount of information through multiple channels on a daily basis that give us ideas, motivation and support in problem solving.

Access to information is an amazing ability but have you thought about giving back and helping others like yourself too? The humans mind is built to solve problems and face challenges.

Make sure you’re creating too, feed that thirst to build and create something, anything to put out into the world.

Know your audience

Being a storyteller is an important component to expressing your ideas and gaining support.

Develop the skill of building an engaging narrative to bring your audience on a journey and most importantly, identify how to communicate with different audiences.

In developing your communications and engagement plans, you must know the audience you’re speaking with. How do they digest information? Do they respond better to simple language or a bit more detail? Are they visual or prefer a more intimate style?

Success in getting audiences to buy into your ideas is by knowing them, knowing how to engage and tell your story in a way they understand.

Anything less is selling yourself and them short.

I came across a video called “The Meaning” featuring Jim Carrey, it’s one of those motivational videos that generally I steer clear from, but there was something different about this one, I was seduced by the title and quickly pressed play to find out more.
