The Hero's Journey Amsterdam. Making Money Doing What You Love. Peter de Kuster
The Creative Hero
This chapter discusses creative heroes and how they have found tremendous success and creative freedom, not just financially but also in their work. It emphasizes focusing on your strengths and embracing what makes you unique rather than trying to fit a mold. True success comes from finding your gifts and using your creativity in your career. While society often rewards more conventional left-brain approaches, being creative requires using both sides of your brain and finding a whole-brain approach that works for you. The key is taking time to understand yourself so you can work with your natural abilities and find fulfilling work that fits you like a glove.

1. De
Held
in
Geld
in
Parijs
(20)
Door

De
Reis

reisgidsen
Meerdere
passies
om
je
geld
mee
te
verdienen:
het
verhaal
van
Parijs
van
John
Steinbeck
Het
is
niet
altijd
mogelijk
om
wel
te
varen
(of
zelfs
te
overleven)
op
onze
creatieve
heldendaden
alleen.
John
Steinbeck
(auteur
van
‘The
Grapes
of
Wrath’
en
‘Of
Mice
and
Men’)
zei
ooit,
`The
profession
of
book
writing
makes
horse
racing
seem
like
a
solid,
stable
business`.
Misschien
vertelden
jouw
ouders
jou
dat
een
creatieve
loopbaan
niet
practisch
was.
Dat
kan
waar
zijn,
maar
als
je
bent
zoals
ik,
is
er
geen
keuze.
2. Het
is
creatief
of
niet.
Toch
moet
je
in
staat
zijn
om
geld
te
verdienen.
Het
kan
gebeuren,
maar
het
kan
enige
tijd
duren
voordat
je
er
bent,
en
in
de
tussentijd
moeten
we
rekeningen
betalen.
Op
het
punt
komen
waar
jouw
creatieve
ondernemingen
alles
voor
jou
betaald
is
jouw
doel.
Maar
voordat
je
daar
bent
kun
je
geld
verdienen
uit
bronnen
anders
dan
jouw
creatieve
onderneming.
Er
is
niets
mis
daarmee,
en
veel
creatieve
helden
voor
jou
hebben
dezelfde
weg
afgelegd.
Het
feit
is
dat
er
veel
creatieve
helden
zijn
die
een
vak
hebben
dat
nooit
genoeg
zal
zijn
om
je
te
ondersteunen.
Je
zult
jouw
inkomen
moeten
aanvullen
om
waar
te
blijven
aan
jezelf
en
jouw
creativiteit
in
plaats
van
volledig
uitverkoop
te
houden
en
jouw
visie
te
compromitteren.
Aangezien
creatieve
ondernemingen
feest
of
hongerlijden
kunnen
zijn,
is
er
niets
verkeerd
aan
om
iets
ernast
te
doen
tijdens
het
hongerlijden
gedeelte.
Maak
het
onderdeel
van
jouw
plan.
Dus
hoe
kun
je
overleven
tot
je
wel
vaart?
Een
dagbaantje
dat
goed
betaald,
dat
je
kunt
tolereren
en
jou
niet
afbrand.
Het
is
goed
dat
je
jouw
bestaande
talent
om
dat
extra
inkomen
te
verdienen.
*
Een
dagjob
betekent
regelmatige
loonstrookjes.
*
Ondersteun
de
kunsten
-‐
jouw
kunsten.
*
Een
verandering
van
omgeving
kan
stimulerend
zijn.
*
Het
motiveert
jou
om
harder
te
werken
op
jouw
ECHTE
loopbaan.
3.
Satirisch
verhaal
van
Steinbeck
geinspireerd
door
de
franse
politiek
tijdens
zijn
residentie
in
Parijs
in
de
mid
50’s
*
Je
leert
de
trucs
van
een
vak.
*
Vrij
van
zorgen.
*
Leg
verbindingen.
*
Flexibele
uren.
*
Verdien
genoeg
geld
om
te
doen
wat
je
werkelijk
wilt.
*
Kom
dichter
bij
de
droom.
Werk
met
jouw
dagjob
dicht
bij
jouw
uiteindelijke
droombjob.
