Why I Love Q4 – Last Push for 2018-2019 | Liron Yanconsky’s Podcast – Episode 50

Hi there, Liron here and today I want to talk to you about why I love Q4 of the year!

Hard Work

To make a long story short – I see Q4 as an opportunity to work even harder than I worked for the entire year.

I like to start strong, then take it a little easier around July, and then pick up the pace again and go faster.

The main word I want to use for Q4 is MORE. I like to use this opportunity to JUST DO MORE. More videos, more posts, more ads, more articles.

By doing that, I know I’m setting myself up to win at the start of next year.

Conclude 2018 & Plan 2019

This is also a good time to reflect on the successes of the year (so many wins in 2018!). It’s important to recognize these.

Then, it’s time to plan how to win next year.

My Goals: Recap

I have two main MACRO goals. These are probably things I will never fully attain, but will always feel.

1. I want to become one of the best watercolor painters and teachers in the world.

2. I want to inspire as many people as possible to create with complete passion and courage.

And that’s pretty much it for this one. Now let’s move on to the artist corner!

Artist Corner

Today I’m featuring Russ the rapper.

In the past I told you how I want to feature not only visual artists, but also musicians, actors, writers and so on. So now’s the time.

Russ’s favorite theme is of him doing it himself. No one signed him, no one put him on, and he built his own career with his two hands.

I can really relate to that. When you are just getting started – all you get is no’s. And it’s up to you to push through and hopefully stick it to the nay-sayers’ faces (;

Here’s my favorite song of his: Me You

Scared of Getting Started? Listen to THIS | Liron Yanconsky’s Podcast – Episode 46

Hi there, Liron here!

A couple of months ago, I slowly came to realize just how many people aren’t starting to do what they like because they are scared.

They are scared of other peoples’ judgement of them and their art.

A lot of people have been hitting me up with message regarding being too scared to paint outside, and having other people see them do that and comment.

A Video From my Business Monday Series

A while back I posted a video on my YouTube channel, about this exact topic. I want  to share that with you today (:

The Fear Goes Away

This is my main point here. The fear goes away by doing and getting  yourself accustomed to doing.

And here’s the punchline – it goes away much faster than you think.

I felt a little uncomfortable the first 3 times I painted outside – and then nothing. It all went away.

Same for filming myself. That fear was even more accentuated. And sure enough, after 3-4 times of doing it – it went away.

Live Your Life by Your Own Opinions and Rules

Letting others dictate what you can  and can’t do is a recipe for a bad life. If you want to paint – DO IT.

If  you want to paint outside – DO IT.

The fear will subside much faster than you think.

Artist Corner

Today I talked about Konstantin Sterkhov. He is a Russian watercolor and oils painter.

I didn’t like his oils as much, but his watercolors – AMAZING. Very realistic, yet characterized by very simple color schemes.

You can check out his work here: SterkhovArt.com
