Day 20 in Thailand 

(The Industry Is So Much Bigger…)

Being an art-based business owner and a professional jeweler working in the industry for over 10 years, I Have seen a lot of “The Industry,” or so I thought! It wasn’t until getting to Thailand that I realized, what I thought was the industry is just a tiny segment of the huge beast! Pick a small external part of the body, say a fingernail, ear, or eyeball. That part of the body is what we are all thinking our respective “industries” are. The issue is that we are blinded by what we see. We think because we see so much, we know the hole story. Really, we only ever see most of that one part. It takes time and energy to see, learn, and experience more. We all need to find out more about our respective industries! This ABSOLUTELY gives us new ideas and ways of looking at things. New ways to solve old problems and new problems that are being solved in unique ways! You know when you found something good when you feel small in comparison to the whole! Look for the person behind the screen. Learn from them and what they have done!

Enjoy!
