On my way out the door at work today I noticed that there was this sculpture on a stone wall. I tried taking it straight on like the photo below. Take a look at it, it is blah and boring unlike the one above.
Just by making a slight change in your perspective makes a huge difference. You can go from bland and static to a photo with depth and energy.
I’ve noticed that this can happen often when you are online all the time. You may get so focused on one way to look at things and then something comes along to change your perspective. I’m about to start reading Chris Brogan and Julian Smith’s book Trust Agents (Amazon Affiliate Link).
I’ve got an advanced copy and I plan to read it very soon. I was a little peeved at Chris Brogan before Affiliate Summit. There was a miscommunication regarding Twitter but now, things are real cool. I mean real cool. He’s gave an amazing keynote and he even gave me a mention in his newsletter. I was floored. Already he is changing my perspective.
I’m looking forward to tell you all about it. If you can’t wait for me to tell you about it you can always go to Tim Jones, He’s already asked the question Who Do You Trust?
Eva and I read Barefoot Books Every Night!

A change of perspective–both literally and figuratively–can be so refreshing!

Dara,
Exactly. That was what made me think when I was taking this photo, what if I looked at it a different way.
So, I guess you got the Twitter issue all figured out, now?
Thanks for the link — be looking for a video review, if I can ever get through the book without finding 100 different ideas to work on. :)
.-= Look at what Tim Jones wrote blog ..Ninja Affiliate Plug-in Sale =-.
Yep. Thanks, Drew for helping change my perspective too. I live in sunny Florida so I am going to see if I can make it to IZEAFEST.
Tim,
Twitter is all good now. I’m just on chapter 1 of the book but will have a few things to write about I am sure once I am finished.
Alexis,
Glad that you are going to try and get to IZEAFest, it is going to be a great time.
Thanks for your info. Photograph is very beautiful.
