A quote from my mom when I was little. I grew up the oldest of a gaggle of sisters and one brother. Always mischief of some kind.
I thought of this while looking through a book, “Being Happy” for an inspirational quote to post on Facebook or Twitter. I flipped the book open to a section titled, “you get what you expect.” It’s very true. So I posted it with hopes of inspiring some of my friends to enter their work in an awards program I’m working on for IABC Minnesota. My status update was “Get what you expect and make sure you have high expectations! I’d say the over the moon with a gentle earth landing.” After posting stuff about the competition.
Personally, I do not like awards competitions because I think they are too subjective, especially when it comes to creative/art/graphic design. But this particular one sends the entries to other states for judging with a set of criteria – hopefully making it more objective.
Expectations for Bronze Quill this year: way over 30 entries. Let’s shoot for the moon. Poop on it. And then land on earth, telling everyone about our experience. I’m adventurous, why not?
