less consuming. more doing. | Daily Creative

[@NielsdeKemp]

Just by looking at the title I knew this was a video for me. Inspiring as always, very relevant subject at this point in my life (and career). Thank you! Cheers from Amsterdam

[@ChaseJarvis]

+Niels Kemp Creative cheers! 😎👍🏻

[@NadjaNiemann]

Thank you, Chase. - Powerful messages. Gotta go now, - switch off my computer and get some film rolls developed!

[@ChaseJarvis]

+Nadja Niemann yes! 👍🏻

"Less consuming" can also refer to consumption of blog posts, how-to videos (including these videos!), tutorials, social marketing tip post, email funnel webinars.... At some point, you must DO. I make those things a scheduled item - just like bookkeeping or scheduling emails or social media posts & engagement, schedule a time per week, or Monday/Wednesday/Friday, or daily, or whatever - read 2 blog posts, or watch one video, or read a chapter of a business book, or spend a finite amount of time (10 minutes) catching up on email newsletters...etc. Then get on with your day and DO. CREATE.

CHASE!!!! Your response to the second question was gold! I was waiting to hear and you hit it on the head!

[@QuirkyandCrabby]

Nice kick in the pants! I feel like I've been stuck in the consuming phase lately...this is really what I needed to hear today.

[@ChaseJarvis]

+Courtney K. Try creating before consuming for a few days. Would love to hear how it goes. ❤️

Amazing words, Chase, as always. I left my job more than a year ago. Started to follow my dream, started to working on video game developing alone, started to learn digital painting, English, coding, and other stuff. Spent more than 1500 hours doing that, and it's definitely became a habit, a habit of keep pushing myself and to keep doing to move forward. And now here we are, at the point when the project I'm working on is about to be published and to move to the next stage of development. And I'm a person who was not just less doing, more consuming at the beginning of the journey. I was a person who was ONLY consuming. But guys like you, Chase, your wisdom and set of mind turned me into the person who is simply changing the life to the better every day. When I do digital painting and just keep listening to your youtube videos, my willpower reaches the ceiling.

Less consuming, more doing!!! That is EXACTLY the message I need today 05/12/2021! Thank you Chase

Less consuming, more doing!!! That is EXACTLY the message I need! Thank you.

[@ChaseJarvis]

+Sharon Tucker yes! 👊🏼

[@joannev.coruna273]

The first q&a was just perfect timing for me, esp the second part of your answer (less consuming, more creating). I just read an article on the impact of social media on our lives and really on our existence as human beings (shared by elle luna on her IG stories the other day), and that article led me to turning off the internet on my phone for most of the day except for an hour AFTER i’ve read for an hour, AFTER i’ve written, and AFTER i’ve painted. Have only been doing it for two days and my head is so much clearer, just so much less foggy. This video was like a little high five. Thank you, Chase. 🙌🏼

[@ChaseJarvis]

+Jo Anne V. Coruña yes! Great to hear. It's a small thing that can make a huge difference

[@TomMasonPhoto]

Cracking advice as always Chase - I often think its easy for people to falsify procrastination as research, but as you say without the "do" you're just consuming. Cheers for all you do for the community! Tom

[@seehumor2647]

I appreciate the content - people truly need to be conscious of how much they are creating vs. consuming! I discuss this idea a bit in the last video on my channel as well - For me right now I'm focused on content creation way more than consuming content. I want to encourage others to get to the same stage!

[@atolavisuals]

You do you! Always end my vids that way. People worry too much about other people. You're only competition is with yourself Amen bro!

[@Themindofreyrey]

Chase is the man!

[@texomatic]

I'm going to have to call in at some point. Maybe today. I along with other independents could possibly use some help on an issue I'm currently dealing with. As always, thank you for delivering these informative videos!

[@CarolinaHawkeye]

[@NicoleWarrington]

I saw this video in my inbox. I hovered to click it, then stopped, went to my studio and painted for 20 minutes first. Thanks! I'll watch it now : )

[@ChaseJarvis]

+Nicole Warrington ha. Yes! Love it Nicole. 😊👍🏻

[@progtom7585]

More doing... what? #stuck!!

[@kristinasikora5629]

Your answer to both questions was spot on.

[@TheTomyG]

Superb insight 👍🏻

[@MATZ302]

thanks soooo much for answering my question :) i can't believe you put me on! i was so tired when sending you this!! i love the answer you gave... it's amazingly really insightful music and rapping is a very interesting area... but generally i start my day with creating music without any outer impact. after that i consume, copy, remix and practice... same with creating my videos :) with that i'm less familiar so i learn and consume, i soak and then i create my own!

[@ChaseJarvis]

+Roy Matz great question and thx so much for calling in and being a voice for so many. ❤️👊🏼

[@heathergonzalez6890]

Thank you, Chase. It is so helpful how you redirect us to doing the work (and explain why) so we can get better as well as push is to get our work out there (and explain why as well as help dispel some of the fears and road blocks).

[@ChaseJarvis]

+Heather Gonzalez it makes my day. ❤️👍🏻

[@creagiovane3318]

thank you

[@AshleyMurphyArt]

Jeff Goins talked about this in his most recent book, Real Artist Don't Starve. #artiststeal (thank you for this... just this week I am putting a collection of my artwork in a local dress shop)

[@ChaseJarvis]

Yes! Jeff was just on #cjLIVE as well. Check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/opvQg4h3r7WGf8U

[@AshleyMurphyArt]

Chase Jarvis will do! Sorry I missed that! Thanks for the link!

[@essence174]

I had two professors while I was in art school who said the same thing you said. They called it visually feeding yourself. Great advice!!!!
