Creativity, Risk, and Living Fully with Chris Burkard
Chris Burkard
“If what I'm doing doesn't require some element of risk, I think that's a telltale sign it's not worth it. And it doesn't always have to be financial. It can be emotional.”
“Faster alone, further together. When you get to collaborate, you're leaning into somebody else's experience, their skillset, their talents. It's the bread and butter of how you make something really thrive.”
“Fear is a unique thing because it can be crippling to creativity. It's like a vacuum. It sucks out any element of joy or passion. If you're going to be scared, just do it scared.”
“We think the work is going to speak for itself, but it's not. People need to know what's behind the image, what it felt like to be there. The lost art is the art of communication.”
“I need to be in situations where I am not the one holding the steering wheel. I am actually subjecting myself to something bigger than myself. And that's a healing for me.”
