Creative Bulletin n.265
Yes, you read that right: what you see in the photo isn’t a render but a real paper prototype—so get ready, because Fabula for non-fiction is on its way! 🚀
This year's plan. I’m committing to launching six new products because, for too long, we’ve been focused on distributing and promoting the “old” ones, and I felt like I was losing my way.
Now, as I try to bring this ambitious plan to life, I realize it might not be entirely sustainable—both in terms of energy (brutal! 😅) and finances: advertising costs are rising so much that we risk having to price our products at levels that feel too high compared to Sefirot’s vision.
Puzzles take time to reveal their full picture. In every project, we move forward piece by piece, discovering something that works—until, a few months later, it doesn’t anymore, and we have to come up with something new. Then an idea emerges but doesn’t seem quite ready, so we set it aside, and the cycle continues, until…
For years, I’ve been thinking about creating a series of courses for creatives—covering all the skills needed today by those who want to make a living from their creativity, harness their energy, put it to use, and launch their own projects. A place for continuous learning: a Sefirot Creative School. And what better time than now—when old paradigms are crumbling—to seize the moment? 🔥
🌈 Creative takeaway: Let’s always take a moment to pause.
Yes, we should work with discipline and determination on what we’re passionate about. But we shouldn’t always charge ahead without looking up. Let’s take a moment, once a week—even just an hour—to go for a walk and reflect on what we’re doing. Is it working? Is it fulfilling? Do we truly enjoy it?
We might realize we’re heading in the wrong direction, and that’s okay. A small course correction is all it takes. But if we find ourselves lost at sea after six months, well, that’s a real mess. 😂
With ❤️,
Matteo
