"Acknowledge the Lizard"
Acknowledge The Lizard describes how our prehistoric brainstems hate to be laughed at. Because of this, we fear being creative, and surprise our art. This is described as "the resistance." The Resistance is the little voice in your head that keeps your head down and makes you follow instructions.
"Connect"
Connect describes to us that we have endless possibilities in who we network with. Just a few years ago we could only network and work with the people around us; our family, friends, and co workers. Now we can connect with virtually anyone. As long as you use the social utilities to their full potential the possibilities are endless. If you are looking to see how many new posts you have, or how many facebook friends you have you may be using them for the wrong reasons. Instead you should be seeing who you can connect with on a professional level that you could never have before.
Acknowledge the Lizard and Connect, both apply to me on a creative level, and to this blog. Acknowledge the Lizard applies to getting over the fear of people reading your work. Which, for this class, is all you do on your blog. Everyone can see every piece of work you do.
Connect applies to me creating a professional body of work in this class. I will eventually be connecting with industry professionals and I will have this blog of works to show them if needed.
