Last summer I had the pleasure of interviewing Mark McGuinness, author of Resilience: Facing Down Rejection and Criticism on the Road to Success.
Originally recorded for my members in the Art Biz Incubator, I am able to share this interview now that my members have benefited from it for a number of months.
In the interview Mark discusses:
- How mindfulness will help you build resilience and how to begin a daily practice.
- The difference between rejection and criticism and why they hurt so much (especially for artists).
- How to deal with rejection and criticism.
- Tall Poppy Syndrome and why you want to be a tall poppy.
