    Unstick When Stuck
    Jul 25 2023
    Whether it’s a big problem or a small issue if you keep tripping on in and can’t seem to solve or resolve the issue, you could be creatively stuck. I think we all know what it’s like to feel creatively stuck. But what is the answer or what can you do … well let’s try talking to yourself! This approach is designed to capture the mind to focus on the issue and look at it from all sides as well as use the clumsiness of conversation to get unstuck. The reason I tried and use this method is because I want to solve problems and not keep ruminating on them. I do this by speaking the problems through with different imaginary personas: course lecturer; teacher, friend, relative and so on. For each one I adopt a different conversational style, each one helping to shape and refine the problem, the idea and ultimately the solution.

    A personal brand is more than just what you do or how your website, logo or business cards are designed. It is you—very uniquely you. It allows you to distinguish yourself from everyone else: what is unique about who you are and what you do and the experience and expertise you bring.

    Your brand is about making yourself known for your skills and talents andwhat you stand for.
