Real Artists Don’t Starve with Jeff Goins

Jeff Goins is out to prove that real artists don’t have to starve. In fact, he is out to prove that they can thrive in his latest book Real Artists Don’t Starve: Timeless Strategies for Thriving in the New Creative Age.

My wife and I had the chance to spend time with Jeff at Tropical Think Tank in early 2017 and we had some fantastic conversations surrounding artistry, writing, business, family, and more. While I’ve hung out with Jeff at other events (including Chris Guillebeau’s World Domination Summit), getting to know him better in Cebu was one of the highlights of my time there.

Some of the things we discussed in this episode include the idea of how he is able to be so prolific and deliver quality at the same time, why stealing can be something an artist can do, why collaboration can be a good thing – or even the best thing – for the thriving artist, what role mindset and money have in the life of an artist, and more.
