    I was the graphic designer in a newspaper company in the 80’s. Fresh from graduating I had so many innovative ideas about creating adverts for clients only to be shot down by my boss who criticised my ideas for not conforming to the newspaper’s image. I was so furious I quit. I moved into another industry and to this day, in my 60s I regret not sticking to graphic design looking at all the amazing wonders computer have done for the advertising industry nowadays.

    These phases of development PERFECTLY mirror Beethoven’s phases of composition. Early phase, where he composed mainly in the style of his predecessors. The middle phase, where he adapted and extended this style to fit his artistic vision. The late phase, where he completely broke from the normal conventions and created a higher, fuller music that still mystifies us.
    Compare this to the other composers who never grew and stuck with the style of their education forever. They were all forgotten.

    It is such a good point. Just read the purple cow by Seth Godin and realized that I was walking around with a purple cow, asking brown cows for advice and ended up with a really brown cow. This did not happen with my first company, where I constantly defied that,but falsely concluded I should have listened better. But this is scary stuff. Building the third company where I follow MY beliefs! When not being certain about anything! Is the most wonderful paradox🎉

    Late to the party here. Good stuff.
    Speaking for me, at least, the real fun starts when you reach the creative phase. The discipline and time it takes to get there in an arena that requires a lot of foundational skill first, such as programming or martial arts, is the battle I find toughest.

  • @GabrielJaldon
    @GabrielJaldon Před rokem

    The video seems to be more on standing out rather than avoiding getting shot down. Personally, I have stood out at times by delivering high-impact work as a dev. This seems to have led to some toxicity in the workplace with colleagues being competitive and shutting down my proposals/solution even when they seem to make the most sense. Anyway, I was hoping to get a better sense of how not to get shot down from the video. Maybe a follow-up vid for advice more focused on that?
