Re: Ted's suggestions collected

I have included Ted's addendum below, and I have also turned the post into a page, which has the benefit of always being in the foreground of the blog (since the link is permanently on the front page), as opposed to disappearing down the list as I add new posts to the blog. The URL is now:

Hi Nathan,
I think this one is more important than some of the other suggestions... it works! ;-)

================
Success - the 3 C's.



Some photographers believe they have to be the world's "greatest

photographer" to be successful. This is a myth and for many an unattainable goal.



The formula for success is very simple.



If you are a competent photographer to start with, the ingredient for

achieving success is knowing the 3 C's.



CONCENTRATE - CONSISTENT -- CREDIBILITY



Do only those assignments that allow you to Concentrate, be Consistent, and

maintain your Credibility. This in turn will make you a dependable

successful photographer.



When an editor or client knows you are dependable, in that, when he or she

gives you an assignment, come hell or high water you are going to come back

with usable material.  And with any kind of luck, a few diamonds in the

exposed film.



Being dependable through the 3 C's, almost guarantees you will have all the

assignments you can  manage successfully.

With Ted's permission, I have collected his three sets of suggestions posted to the LUG during the past few days, and put them on my blog, in the photography section:

http://www.fotocycle.dk/blog/?p=104

That way, they are available in an easily-accessible place, at least until Ted finishes writing his "how-to" book :-)
