Yup another one to add to the list, this one is by author Richard Jacobs, the author of Searching for Beauty. I’m excited to see where this blog will lead us and the conversations to be had. Already the one quote from the book posted on the blog refers back to a conversation we’ve been having recently here.
““… Is innate talent the ultimate determiner of success, or like so many other human enterprises, does packaging, marketing, the right connections and pandering to popular taste determine success? Do you measure success by the quality of the pot on the shelf or the amount of money in the bank? Can you really have both?..” Searching for Beauty, page 17
Awnsers anyone??? please???
Check out more of Richards writing on his blog Searching for Beauty.
I say 'a little of both?' I do think packaging – marketing has some not so wonderful pots on folks shelves. It's definitely an interesting conversation.
