Some days are finished products (which I may or may not feel pleased with), and other days are drills (which I also may or may not feel pleased with). That’s the life of a student learning a new creative skill. Gremlins abound in all corners. Your job is to continually send them off to get pedicures so you can get back to work.

More Visual Shownotes™ from the Jordan Harbinger Show, with @jordanharbinger and Tali Sharot on the Science of the Influential Mind.

I love practicing visual notes to Jordan’s podcast because he A) Gets such fascinating guests; B) Does a great job interviewing them; and C) Has terrific show notes that I can crib for my Visual Notes™! 😅

No joke—learning a new skill is hard! I’m juggling multiple skills here, each of which needs a lot of work:
🖍
– lettering (not just well, but also quickly! Gahhh!)
– drawing (again, not just drawing, but also quickly! Gahhh!)
– capturing IDEAS quickly, and translating them into visual metaphors
– listening, listening, listening, and holding onto content that is rolling by while I’m trying to capture content that *just* rolled by
🖍
It’s what I imagine juggling 5 balls at a time must be like. (And since I can’t even juggle ONE ball, well, you get the idea!)
🖍
I’m not aiming to become a professional graphic recorder. My goal is to bring more visuals into my workshops and trainings. So I’m not “cheating” by using podcasts to practice with. In fact, I see it as a great double-win: I get to practice, AND I get to listen to podcasts I enjoy while I’m at it. 😊
