I think that you just understand, as any creative person, that there’s a beast that you have to beat, and it never goes away. I’ve resigned myself to that, and it’s kind of what keeps you going. Writing is the worst and the best.
I don’t really have hobbies. I paint. I write. I direct videos. I take photos. I’m a creative person. A normal day for me is doing all of those things. Sometimes I stay up until 5 A.M. writing a song because I make music. It’s the same with writing.
Before I was working professionally, I would do YouTube covers. But as a creative person, it was really hard for me when I wasn’t releasing my own music. That felt unnatural to me.
Like any other creative person, I would make home videos, and I would make sketches with my friends, and I would make my own movies, so I have some love for the creative process.
As a creative person, you have to keep going. There’s no defined career path. There’s no security.
I’m not an executive. I’m a creative person.
As a designer, design director or any creative person, you have to hire great people, support them and make them feel comfortable so they can contribute and give you their best.
An artist or a creative person of any kind goes about their work because it’s their path, it’s what excites them, it’s what aligns their soul with who they truly are, who they showed up to be.
You don’t have to make something in order to retain your identity as an artist or a writer or a creative person. A lot of people think they have to be producing in order to maintain that identity.
I find cooking very therapeutic. As a creative person, I relish cooking because it’s such a creative process. You can cook anything out of anything.
I can’t be a creative person if I’m a celebrity.
It’s hard to juggle being a businessperson with being a creative person. You have to organize yourself – PR needs me for PR, and the licensing division needs me for licensing, the bridal people need me for bridal.
If I have not the power to put myself in the place of other people, but must be continually burrowing inward, I shall never be the magnanimous creative person I wish to be. Yet I am hypnotized by the workings of the individual, alone, and am continually using myself as a specimen.
I’m really excited for the future, and I’m a very extremely creative person.
When you’re a creative person, there are just times when you’re not listening. You know, I could be looking right at you and thinking about something else.
I am a creative person.
I like people. Listen, if you’re a hotelier, if you’re a creative person, and you’re working with the things that I do, then you have to like people; otherwise, you simply can’t get anywhere.
I’m a creative person. I love to write, I love to act, I love to perform, I love to create things with my hands, so I do all of these things that are kind of like hobbies in a way. They’re things that I love, so it’s not like a work-life balance; it’s just a work-life marriage.
If you are a creative person, you try to create things that are an extension of yourself.
I think I’m most proud of the fact that I have figured out how to exist as both a creative person and artist, and a businesswoman and manager. Because those two things do not go together.
I’m not in it for the money. No, no. I like to run a business that’s successful… I’m a very creative person.
That’s always the time to quit – when you have nothing to say as an artist and creative person.
