I needed to hear this today. I have just started my own party planning/designing business, literally just weeks ago. As a little fish, it is a bit intimidating, yet inspiring to see posts and pictures of parties, invites, etc that the "Big Fish" have designed. I know that often people feel angry when the newbies have questions or ask for advice from the "old timers". We are just trying to learn too. I think it is exciting to see so many creative people doing what they love to do. I agree with what Jenni B said, "the support and positive words" mean so much. Thank you for ALWAYS being supportive of the "little fish." You are an inspiration!Cupcakes and Lemonadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00147896412685453159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862642983691647286.post-29230084865864139542010-11-05T19:40:32.692-04:002010-11-05T19:40:32.692-04:00Love it Kate.....there is so much talent put there...Love it Kate.....there is so much talent put there...and I am sure it is frustrating especially for those who depend on the income....but I think it is important to stay with your passion and you will always find happiness.

Big Fishes feed off of Small Fishes and Small Fishes grow into Big Fishes......just a cycle that will always keep you on your toes. Time will tell....it always does and if you do what you love and love what you do no matter if your a Big Fish or a Small Fish just be the best Fish to yourself and to your clients that you can be. Me I prefer being a Fat Fish; full of a love of what I do, gratitude to those who help me bring my passion to reality, those I can help by paying it forward, a passion for my business and to always exceed my client's expectations with humbleness. This is why I do what I do.CHS Creative Productions Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15530627632869020379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862642983691647286.post-36716527104475570212010-11-05T14:10:09.032-04:002010-11-05T14:10:09.032-04:00Thank You for sharing....Love this perspective.

There are a whole group of new designers, event planners and bloggers who are trying to make their first few dollars doing something they love. Instead of being angry and frustrated we could all possibly remember what it was like when we first entered into this field (the difficulties/long hours/nervousness) and try to support others to an extent with positive words/advice.<br /><br />While it might scare some people, the fact that the job market is currently growing means that the demand for this type of industry is growing as well. Eventually it may be a saturated market, but for those people who take this new rush of designers as inspiration to work harder and produce more/better quality work then they will eventually rise to the top.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16112666223481821146noreply@blogger.com
