The new black

May 4th, 2009

“Is out of focus the new black?”
This blog post has been on my mind lately, and really because of the post below it about self worth valuing your work, by Michael Rubenstein.

I recently lost a bid because of the $$$ and not the quality of the work. So instead I got to go drink copious Mint Juleps at Arlington Park and catch the Kentucky Derby with friends.

As Michael points out some times you gonna stand your ground and value yourself. If you take a job for under market prices why would they pay you or anyone more next time? Brian Valentin and I were talking about something similar after seeing the Thermals last week. We’ve seen a lot of our friends lose jobs, but feel free. There’s so much you can’t control. Focus on getting better not getting ahead. Let yourself go. Be smart. Value yourself. Take Chances. Love. Embrace a failure. Move. Drink. Rock.

I looked my fear in the eyes!
Looked at the water below!
I knew I could love or live!
I let it go!
