Without knowing the connection with the audience, the artist practices walking in circles, while telling themselves hypothesis over hypothesis with no real goal, no real idea on how to move forward, what details to look for, where to focus or who oneself is… as represented through the art.
Business is where we really talk about uniqueness, differentiation, focusing on the real audience, choosing whether to grow or not and how, if quality is better than quantity, how to scale and maximize while keeping the right focus, uniqueness and differentiation, methods on which right leads to focus to lead to the desired end results.
Business learning and knowledge is the greatest facilitator of good art.
not only that, the best of business people, teachers and thinkers all emphasize the necessity of giving, mindfulness, visualization, mind’s eye, balance, productivity, prioritization and healthy living, focusing on the right things.
I am told that many great Zen Masters are business people too. The reasons can be more than one can immediately come up with.
