The burden we bear


November 9th, 2009 in Inspiration by Johannes van Kan

Queensberry Connects is about the photography, technology, business and relationship skills you need to run a successful wedding and portrait studio. Album marketing and album design are our primary focus but we'll cover anything it takes to succeed in this business. We hope our posts will sometimes amuse you, sometimes inspire you, but always offer something to think about. And we're all busy, so we try to keep it brief. Click here for some suggestions to get you started.

James makes fabulous coffee. He brings in the beans, roasts them, cures the roast, grinds the roasted beans, and extracts the sacred juices.

People know that he makes the best coffee you can get.

Not many know why, or how.

Not many people understand the difference between the brew they get from the Lyttelton Coffee Company and one from Anyoldcafe. They still have their coffee here because they love the food, or the staff, or the environment.

Meanwhile in the background James is quietly fizzing over the arrival of some single source Cuban beans that will raise the coffee experience to another level.

The Coffee Hounds will raise one eyebrow and nod knowingly. The rest will possibly never know. James will be happy in the knowledge that he has once again raised the bar for himself.

Photographers do the same with their achievements. They make personal improvements and reach goals that often go unnoticed.

That is the burden we bear. The things we do that lift us above the average often go by unseen, but they do make us feel better about what we do.

Cheers
Johannes
