Have you ever felt like your head is an internet browser with 100 tabs open? The music has stopped, but you don’t know which tab it’s coming from. Your computer fan sounds like a plane about to take off. Everything…
Imagine for a moment that your mind is a room. Right now, that room has windows open where papers are flying in, the phone won’t stop ringing, there are sticky notes glued to the ceiling, and in a corner, a pile of…
There is a dangerous chasm between knowing what you have to do and actually doing it. You may have read the previous chapters, understood the theory of emptying your mind, and agreed with natural planning, yet still…
There is a moment in work life that we all dread. You’ve just been assigned a massive project. It’s complex, it’s important, and it has an aggressive deadline. You sit in front of your computer, open a new blank…
It’s three in the afternoon on a random Tuesday. You are sitting in front of your screen, trying to write an important report, but your mind isn’t there. One part of your brain is rewinding an uncomfortable…
Have you ever felt like your head is about to explode—not because of the amount of work, but because of the mental noise of everything you have pending? We live in a modern paradox. We have more technology than ever…
There is a ghost sound that haunts old-school photographers, and even new ones who learned from them. It’s a mental “click-clack” that rings in the back of their brain every time they press the shutter. In the era of…
Professional photographers are always “out.” And I don’t just mean they are outdoors; they are out of their comfort zone, dealing with variables that would make an accountant weep. We mortals take photos when our…
The title of this lesson is, let’s admit it, a bit misleading. It promises to teach you how to make people look “better.” But let’s be brutally honest: if the person has been touched by the magic wand of ugliness,…
This is the only moment where we will be brutally honest about money. Scott Kelby begins his lecture on sports photography with a cruel but necessary survey. Look at the price of an average photography book (say, 20…
It’s happened to you. You save up all year. You ask for your two weeks of vacation. You rent an SUV, load up the family, and drive to the edge of the Grand Canyon or Yosemite Park. You stand before the abyss. The…
At the precise moment you tell yourself: “My life is too quiet, I need a little excitement,” is when, for some cosmic reason, you decide to agree to photograph your first wedding. Unlike the controlled studio, where…
You’ve surely been there: you’re walking through a park, you see a spectacular flower, you pull out your camera (or high-end mobile), shoot, and think: “That’s it, I have a work of art.” Flowers seem like the perfect…
Have you ever looked at a double-page spread in a top-tier magazine and asked yourself, “How on earth do they get it to look that sharp?” You look at your own photos on the camera’s LCD screen, and they seem perfect.…
There is a persistent fantasy in modern work culture that glorifies the heroic individual. We like to imagine the ultra-productive leader as a lone wolf, a craftsman who polishes every detail with their own hands…
In the business world, there’s a persistent myth: “If you want it fast, it will be bad. If you want it good, it will be slow.” We’ve been taught that speed and quality are enemies. But in today’s economy—where…
We live in the cruelest paradox of modern work. We carry devices in our pockets with more processing power than NASA had in 1969. We have apps for everything. We can connect with anyone on the planet in milliseconds.…
Time is the only truly democratic resource. Elon Musk has 24 hours. You have 24 hours. The difference between massive success and mediocrity isn’t having more time (impossible), but having more control over it. In…
