johnnysilverhand:“It’s something that’s dawned on me really – I’m approaching my 40s now. What does making my mark mean? Is it about being sharp-elbowed and ambitious even if it means leaving people behind? Or is it more about accepting the gifts and the curses you’ve inherited and trying to pass them along in slightly better shape? When you start out you have this view of like, ‘I’m going to do this, I’m going to do that.’ But now, I think more about where can we get to collectively. How can I knock the ball further forwards, so that other people can knock the ball further forwards and I’ll meet you further up the pitch?Creativity is a collective conversation. It’s about collaboration and sharing. There’s this myth isn’t there, this capitalist myth, this Ayn Rand image of the man who comes down – it’s Steve Jobs, or it’s Moses, they come down with the gospel. But for me, it’s a conversation – we’re all standing on the shoulders of the people who came before us.”RIZ AHMEDphotography by Taylor Rainboltfor Esquire UK, 2021 -- source link
