I think that we creative-slash-thinky types are often seduced by the idea that if we’re good enough – sufficiently pithy, sufficiently talented, if our ideas are the “best” – people will pick up on that and reward us accordingly. A record company exec will hear us singing to ourselves at the mall and sign us up. An editor will stumble across our blog and ask us to write a column for them. We’ll write a thesis so groundbreaking that it won’t just enter the academic lexicon; it’ll become part of popular culture to boot.
And sometimes that does happen, I guess. But most of the time, getting what you want – especially if “what you want” is something really juicy – means pulling out all stops. And for most people (for me, at least) pulling out all stops requires being honest about what you want.
