And they show up and they see how long it... That is not what happens at the modern restaurant in Manhattan that Danny Meyer owns.
There's nobody with a stopwatch there.
Different clients, different output.
So when you pick your customers...
their stories, their fears, their desires, their budgets, what they use as fuel, you've just announced how you want to spend your days.
Don't let your clients decide this.
You decide.
When you pick your clients, you then get to pick.
And the same thing's true for your teacher.
When you pick your students, right?
If you're going to have a whole bunch of fractious, sugared up students who don't care about school, that's the way your day is going to be spent.
Whereas if you go to some place that's selective and the people are really enrolled, like Juilliard, you don't have to say people shut up and sit down because you're teaching at Juilliard.
The students you picked determine how you spend your day.
So how do you get ahead if you're a freelancer?
It's simple.
Get better clients.
Better clients challenge you more, pay you more, talk about you more.
You can't have more clients because you're a freelancer, but you can have better clients.
Better clients are the ones like Chip Kidd, the great book cover designer.
Chip Kidd can only design 30 book covers a year, whatever it is.
