1 One who has isolated himself seeks his own desires he rejects all sound judgment. 2 A fool takes no pleasure in understanding but only in disclosing what is on his mind. There are thirty-one chapters in the book of Proverbs, and since it isn't a narrative, it's easy to read a chapter a day. If you miss a day, just skip it and catch it the following month. I try to do this all year round. Today's chapter for the 18th, the first two verses really hit me as the reason I came up with Constellations. I've seen too many creative projects run on the ego of the isolated "creative genius," or a cavalier CEO telling his creative team he knows better than everyone. My hope for Constellations is that it's a tool to build community within a brand, or in any setting where everyone can be heard. That the individual or the team doing the creative work is able to connect with the people they're representing and speaking to.

Drop what you're working on, anything in progress, anything you just shipped that you're proud of, anything you're stuck on. Share a link, a screenshot, a paragraph, whatever feels right. I'd love to see the work and hear about your process, the messy parts especially. What's working, what isn't, what you'd do differently. Constructive criticism only by default. Add "tough love" to your post if you want real talk.

Welcome to the Course 1 discussion. This is where the Start Here conversations live, no matter which lesson brought you here. Lesson 1 asks what you make and what you'd like to understand about your audience. Lesson 2 asks what you'd want to study if you could put a question in front of thousands. Lesson 3 asks what surprised you in the sample studies on constellations.app. Different prompts, same thread. Bring real work, real questions, and real surprises. The thread is more useful when people are specific.
