Favorite quotes from this talk See all
It's becoming easier and easier to fall down a rabbit hole of lies than to create a mountain of truth.
If being honest was easy we would do it all the time, but it is not easy. As creatives, we have a choice to make. We have a superpower that other industries do not have. We have a superpower that allows us to create experiences and solve problems in a unique way that other people are baffled by. We can accomplish elegant sustainable solutions to gigantic problems if we work from that mindset.
What we choose to create is as impactful as why we choose to create it.
We encounter more lies from each other on a daily basis than we encounter truth. It's easy to lie.
It's becoming easier and easier to fall down a rabbit hole of lies then it is to create a mountain of truth.
