Extraordinary Creatives

The Artists Making Progress Do This First

21 May 2025

Description

This week's shorty is about one simple but powerful shift: getting clear on your goals, what you really want, and how to start getting there. Not just in theory, but in practice, with examples from artists who've done it inside The Artist's Mastermind Circle. There is a difference between working and progressing. You can be busy every day, posting, planning, painting, and still feel like nothing's actually moving. If that sounds familiar to you, this episode is definitely going to help you to break free. The Artist Mastermind Circle: Ready to stop second-guessing and start building momentum in your art career? Applications are now open for the next Artist Mastermind Circle—a six-month coaching programme for mid-career artists who are serious about growing their confidence, income, and opportunities.Apply by 21 July at https://cerihand.com/artist-mastermind-circle/ and take the next bold step. KEY TAKEAWAYS Getting clear on your goals is essential. Set 3 big goals in 3 different areas of your work, e.g. creative, financial, relationships and visibility. When you define your goals out loud, momentum starts to build. Creative goals don't have to be tied to external validation. Goals need to stretch you enough to energise you. Set a financial goal that you can actually measure.  Working out the steps you need to take to achieve each goal, prevents overwhelm and provides you with a full road map to follow. BEST MOMENTS “These (goals) aren't vague hopes. They're specific, time-bound and slightly scary.” “Name a creative goal that actually motivates you.” “Write down a number, then ask, ‘Where could that income realistically come from without overextending myself or compromising my values?’” “Apply now, and within six months, you won't just feel clearer, you will be moving ahead.” PODCAST HOST BIO With over 30 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.
