By default we only want to share our wins and successes. The fear is that if we are open and honest about projects that don’t go well or client experiences that are not stellar that it will somehow reflect negatively upon us. The truth is, when we only share the positives about our careers, it gives a false aspiration of what a creative career truly looks like.
Throughout our careers we will lose more work than we will ever win. That is the simple math of it. And once we acknowledge that reality – we can begin to look at losses as not failures but as opportunities to learn and improve our services to the right clients.
