The reason this is perfect for a friday post is because right now you will have the time to walk the walk. It's the weekend soon and you will be void of all responsibility (within reason) and able to do what you want.
This was a great read. thanks for posting.

He said “I won’t be an assistant for long. I’m going to become a photographer soon.”
Gordon listened politely.
The assistant said “The kind of photography I want to do is from the heart not the head. I think real photography is about emotion.”
Claridge was also listening.
The assistant said “In a little while I’ll have my own studio and I’ll be shooting in London and New York.”
The assistant went on, and on, and on.
“I don’t want to do traditional photography, stuff that’s been done. I want to do something new and fresh, something original. Something that will really make people sit up and look.”

JSK,
But of course. I'm not questioning that. I even think that assistant is one in a million, people who wants to take "real pictures", and I usually dismiss those kinds of people myself.
You do or you don't. My point is that he's judging others by his own past and its accomplishments. Some takes time to get started regardless of their amount of passion. There are so many creative persons and so much talent out there, but just because they don't take action right away, while eating none the less, doesn't make them less creative or less able to accomplish something beautiful.

From reading the article, this is what I got: passion.
People talk about what they want have instead of the passion that pursues them. If the assistance had passion, he would not stop to have wine and bread, he would be out doing his own thing during down time. This happens in every where. someone wants to open an agency, so before they do the work , they look for a space, make look amazing and complain that there is no one asking for work.

What a piece of shit, whomever that photographer is.
If you're enjoying wine and food you should enjoy wine and food. There's no reason to be so single minded on your career or personal goals that you can't enjoy fucking wine and food without thinking about it. And there are even less reasons for someone to judge and patronize others aspirations and abilities by your own past and accomplishments. Over wine and food.
What a prick and what a bore. Glad I've no idea who he is.

We can dream, we can talk, we can boast and brag... or we can just ignore others, knuckle down and DO shit.
