So focus on creative desire and love around your brand.In the US 70-80% of all weddings don’t get photographed, either due to budget or lack of need for professional photography.Look at your recent wedding gallery and see if you can choose 20 frames that tell the full story of the day. And at your next wedding, try to shoot 20 frames that tell more of the story. Still shoot more than 20, but focusing on those 20 will mold you into a better photographer who can tell more in one frame than most can in many.We have a fear of truly putting ourselves out there because what if we draw the attention of someone who would reject us. We often play it safe instead of doing what we love.Business and life is a continuum and too often we think that if we fail in one things, that’s it. But it’s the same as ending a day and then waking up for the next. You can move forward again.You bet on your business every day. If that fails one day, you can still save up money to begin again. Every time you try, you are learning something new, you’re build your confidence, your knowledge of business, and how to interact with people. You’re setting yourself up for success.Competence equals confidence. The more you learn about what you need to be doing, the more confident you will be in doing that thing.Find Jai Long at:jailong.coMake Your Break PodcastWhat Are We Loving?What Jai is loving:Getting to speak on stage again.
