Here is one way to explain. Are you doing something because it is your passion or because you see it as a business. To the listener, the former sounds like the bored housewife who starts a bakery class and the latter sounds like Elon Musk starting a new venture. The imagery is automatic. Simple neat boxes, easy on mind.

What happens when the same housewife launches a national brand and the businessman winds down the business. The brain reshuffles the deck of cards and comes up with a new label to anchor the unknown. The housewife has strong business acumen, luck favours the brave; and the businessman had to fail, needs to be networked.

Labels:

– Blunt intellect, stop you from exploring and discerning

– Like airline baggage stickers, stay stuck

You pay a price for every label you acquire. Lost opportunities, creative expression, and the ability to connect.

Drop the labels that no longer serve you. Be smart.

Consciousness before intellect The hand that rocks the cradle Shapes the mind of the child. Your prints will fade with time But the mark you will leave is undeniable. What matters most Is the invisible that makes the visible.
