Be The Creator: Why Originality Will Always Matter in the Creative Industry

Be The Creator: Why Originality Will Always Matter in the Creative Industry

Throughout every major era in human history, there’s been one constant: creatives have always been essential. From Renaissance painters to classical composers to today’s filmmakers, podcasters, and digital storytellers—those who dared to see the world differently have left the most lasting impact.

In my latest video, Be The Creator, I dive into this timeless truth: Originality is the true currency of creative success.

Back in the day, kings and rulers would commission works from visionaries like Michelangelo or Mozart—not just because of their talent, but because of the way they saw the world. Their perspective was unique. Their voice was undeniable. And that individuality became their superpower.

Fast forward to today. In an age dominated by algorithms, trends, and viral moments, the temptation to imitate is stronger than ever. But the creators who truly rise above—the ones who build real communities, brands, and legacies—are those who embrace their originality.

Whether you're a filmmaker, designer, musician, photographer, or creative entrepreneur, your greatest strength lies in your authenticity. Your story, your lens, your voice—it matters. It’s not just about creating content. It’s about creating impact.
