#230: It's GO time
I’m ready now.
Ready to go again.
Ready to build
Ready to be public.
Ready to create.
Ready to fail.
Ready to learn.
For 18 months after moving away from Sanctus I’ve said “I don’t know what’s next”
I’ve let myself wash and wane, I’ve let myself be confused, be uncertain, be in the void of doubt.
I’ve reflected, learned, read, experimented.
Now. I’ve drawn a line in the sand.
The transition is over.
This is me now.
Over the next 3-6 months I’ll officially launch and talk publicly about what I am working on.
I thought that the projects I’d already got involved in were part time, or that they were stepping stones.
I’d been avoiding commitment, or at least, being cautious with what I wanted to spend my time on.
What I’ve realised is that me being in the middle of a messy creative process, exploring lots of different ideas isn’t me figuring out the next thing.
It is the next thing.
This is what I do.
I explore, I create, I play, I make.
Of the 10 things I’m about to throw at the wall.
3 will stick.
Maybe that’s the Champagne Brand focused on getting us all to celebrate more.
Or it could be the bookshop that gives a free book to a child every time I sell one to an adult.
It could be that I go all in on Stoke’s redevelopment.
It could be that in 6 months I’m in LA turning Jack the Lad into a feature film.
I don’t know, but what I do know, is that not knowing is what I do.
This is me. Playing, creating, venturing.
I’ve got a list of 10 things I’m working on.
It’s time to work on them all in public, in real life, launch them, get them out there, cross them off the list, bury them, let them live.
I’m not searching for the next thing. I’m already there.
It’s go time.
