Keeping the Small Business Owner's Creative Mind Free from Distractions
This spring I was lucky enough to meet the CEO of Behance and author of Making Ideas Happen: Overcoming the Obstacles Between Vision and Reality
Scott has studied hundreds of creatives and found a common thread among the most successful and most productive creative people in the world. How do they keep from becoming distracted? How do they manage to actually make their ideas come to life and become a reality?
In the September issue of Professional Photographer Magazine, I interviewed Scott and he reveals action method, his solution for keeping our creative minds productive. It's worth a read. And if you missed the audio interview I did with Scott in April, take a listen.

What is the most important things to know when entering the field of photography? You need to have a serious, sound technical knowledge of how cameras work, how light works, and how it all combines into a photograph. Without this knowledge, you will never be able to get the pictures you want. You may visit becoming a professional photographer at pdfpal.org for more information.
