Do you wonder how to create something that will live forever even when you won’t?
Do you wonder you can do to give it a lasting effect?
Imagine if you created something that set out as a benchmark for future work in your niche.
You’d think it would be impossible, but it is not. You just have to be a little edgy…
I’m not talking about trends that will come and go. Like seasons that come and go on round the year.
To create that would stand out as an epitome. Something that will last even when you won’t.
