030 Business as Culitvative Practice • Michael Max
Description
In this Shop Talk Michael Max reflects on 25 years of practice and the importance of running a business as a cultivative practice.
We go into the importance not of “faking it till you make it,” but rather using the learning of the early days to better hone your skills and more thoroughly understand who you are, and what your ideal practice really looks like.
Additionally we explore the issues of money and authority, and rather see these as hindrances, they are actually valuable teachers that both help us to be better practitioners and more honest and reliable business people.
The trick, if there is a trick, is not to rely on someone else’s blueprint or master plan, but instead discover your own source code.
Business. It’s not something we have to do, it’s something we have the privilege of engaging.
