In my last post, I shared the two core questions you have to ask yourself if you’re trying to build a creative career.

Career. Such a yucky word. Filled with all sorts of chores and stress. Why ruin your perfectly content creative endeavor with boring business? It’s like putting ketchup on tacos. Bleurgh.

Building a business sounds like a huge undertaking when all you want is a creative hobby.

But what if I told you that those same questions I shared with you can be reflected inward to make you a more creative individual?

Instead of thinking of them as a way to hustle for more clients and customers to build a business, you can use them to fuel your creativity and achieve more from your hobby.

You may never want to charge money for your services or embark on the Odyssey’esque journey of building a career, but if you’re like most people, you haven’t achieved the creative results you’ve hoped for.

So instead of asking those two questions to find clients, turn those questions around and ask them of yourself.

Instead of asking,

“What problem is my customer/client facing that I can solve?”
