Butterflies

I was with a good friend last Friday – talking about work.

My friend David was suggesting that part of the plan for developing my business should be about butterflies. Yes – I gave him a funny look too, just like the one on your face now. And then David showed me this:

Blend into the herd

Here’s a link to the original cartoon – drawn by the very talented Tom Fishburne.

OK – the cartoon is a few years old, but the point is well made. Blending in, it’s all well and good, but – where’s the opportunity in that? To help me develop my thinking, David suggested I paint a butterfly. I tried a few approaches and wanted to share my sketches with you here. I’ve stuck them on my wall as a reminder – be the butterfly 🙂
