Photo World if you look back to episode 67 I did a Monday Message about having a gratitude attitude. It is that same idea of a positive perspective that I want to speak to you about today.

After the pattern of learning and growing hits you know you are running a sustainable business. Many new photographers start their \\u201cbusiness\\u201d thinking it will be easy. However most companies don\\u2019t turn a profit for 3-5 years and many people get burnt out before that ever comes. How many times has it come up on the show that this is a slow play for the long haul? Practice makes perfect\\u2026 not just with your photography but a business as well. I am practicing my business every time I sit down to answer emails, each time I return a phone call, when I sit down and meet with clients, any time anywhere I am practicing my business. Just because I know how to meter my camera and set up my lights doesn\\u2019t mean I don\\u2019t check on myself every time. I have to check on myself, because I could easily miss something that I thought was routine. I always find that when I have a routine, something I could \\u201cdo in my sleep\\u201d, I make a mistake because I went into that situation with far less attention to my \\u201croutine\\u201d. This episode is all about one thought process, one idea that may make all the difference in obtaining your dream job. Not to give it all away, but your next meeting, email, gig, shoot, or book keeping is the dream.

Happy Shooting!
