Engineering Your Creative Career One P at a Time

Moving beyond the myth that bigger is always better, Ceri reveals what actually works: intentional, strategic, and well placed moves. Building the right relationships, choosing the right projects and being open to unexpected opportunities. In this short episode, Ceri shares the power of the "3P Exercise" (Possibility, Person, Place) and talks through how you can maximise your effort in the right way.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

1. Possibility: What’s One Move That Could Make a Real Difference? Write down one opportunity that could move things forward for you right now.
2. Person: Who Could Help Expand Your View? Write down the name of one person you’d love to connect with. Someone who inspires you, whose work you admire, or who you think could provide a fresh perspective.
3. Place: Where Inspires You? Think of one place, it could be a gallery, publisher, agency, festival, or organisation, that excites you. Somewhere you’d love to be part of.

BEST MOMENTS

"Smart moves aren't about cutting corners; they're about maximising your effort in the right way."

"I committed to getting started rather than waiting until I was 'ready.' Now, here we are."

"No ask, no agenda, just a genuine expression of interest. The result? We're now hatching a plan to work together."

"The more deliberate your actions, the bigger the impact."
