“I'm convinced that business success in the future starts with the question, What should I do with my life? Yes, that's right.... People don't succeed by migrating to a "hot" industry (one word: dotcom) or by adopting a particular career-guiding mantra (remember "horizontal careers"?). They thrive by focusing on the question of who they really are--and connecting that to work that they truly love (and, in so doing, unleashing a productive and creative power that they never imagined).” PeopleShouldRememberCareersCreativeParticularIndustrySucceedHotConvincedProductiveThriveShould IBusiness SuccessConnectingOne WordMantrasAdoptingCreative PowerHorizontalUnleashing Author:Po Bronson

“A girl's career today doesn't have the same kind of life span, whereas it used to be a collaboration and a partnership and it continued. Peter Lindbergh still uses girls - like, look at Amber Valetta - so there are some photographers that have relationships long-term with models. I also think that the industry can't support the amount of models that exist right now and therefore the relationships between photographers and models and even the clients is short lived.” ThinkingLooksKindLongStillsUseTodayUsedGirlTermCareersSupportIndustryAmountRight NowModelsPhotographerUsed To BeLong TermCollaborationPeterPartnershipClientsAmberShort LivedLife Span Author:Michael Flutie
