They always say a good painter never has time to paint their own house.

Something about being so in-demand that you just don’t have the opportunity to do you, so to speak. And I’ve heard it said enough about my industry, too. Problem is, if you believe in what you do (as I do) it’s pretty hard to sell your services to others as being important or necessary if you can’t justify the time or energy on doing it for yourself. While it can be hard to justify the cost in the short-term, I’ve found that if you don’t take the time to clearly articulate who you are and what you’re about, you wind up working with people that you don’t want to be working with. As my old boss Damien used to say, doing shit work for idiots.
