327: Lee Silber: Organizing Tips for the Creative Brain/Photographers
Okay, let’s face it. Creatives have special challenges when it comes to being organized and keeping track of our stuff.The reasons can vary. There might be issues with all the things we use that “norm-ies” don’t need, like a list of things needed as a photographer, including cords, lenses, batteries, cameras, chargers, props, and so on.Or the reason can be that we have many different projects going at the same time.Or that…like me…we are more interested in the next creative activity and don’t notice the “wake” left behind from the last one.My amazing guest, Lee Silber, offers hope and practical tips that are contrary to traditional organizing teachings.He is the award-winning author of 26 books, including the popular Creative Person series. Lee is a master at helping right-brained creatives like us find simple, effective ways to organize and run our businesses without killing our spark.One AHA moment for me is how organizing itself can be viewed as an art form, and how leaning into our creative tendencies makes us more successful. Lee shared some wonderfully practical strategies for organization, productivity, and confidence—designed for the way our brains actually work.Here are a few of the highlights from our conversation:* Create right-brain friendly organizing systems: color-coding, index cards, and piles that make sense.* Why perfectionism is the illusion that keeps us stuck, and how to move forward anyway.* “Action is the antidote for anxiety”—just start with one small step.* A point-based to-do list that turns productivity into a game. Lee also has a brand-new book, We Got This, all about building confidence, and he’s offering a free one-sheet gift called Quiet Confidence at leesilber.com/bonus-freebies.If you’ve ever felt like typical business advice doesn’t quite fit how your brain works, this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air.He has a freebie for us about developing confidence Leesilber.com/bonus-freebies (https://leesilber.com/bonus-freebies)And would love to connect with you at lucidumascoaching.com (https://lucidumascoaching.com/)Connect with Photography Business Coach Luci Dumas: * Website (https://lucidumascoaching.com/) * Email: luci@lucidumas.com (mailto:luci@lucidumas.com)* Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/theprofitablephotographer_pod/) * Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/LuciDumasCoaching)* YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCut3Qk6t6Z2DUJYEYGSCfKA)New episodes drop every week — make sure to subscribe so you never miss an inspiring guest or a powerful solo episode designed to help you grow your photography business.
