This came across my internet feeds and I thought it should be shared. It's from the "Festival Network Online", a newsletter for artists and craftsmen.

Things Successful Artists Do Differently
Follow Their Effort:
Successful artists know their strengths, and that’s where they focus their efforts. In this world, the value of hard work cannot be substituted. Effort is the life-force and core reason for success. Yes, artists are passionate. But, passion and talent alone cannot take the place of hard work!
When work, commitment, and pleasure all become one and you reach that deep well where passion lives, nothing is impossible. ~Unknown
At first glance, the following points by billionaire businessman Mark Cuban might seem counterintuitive. However, successful artists are constantly striving to better their craft with effort. Cuban states, “Don’t follow your passions, follow your effort. It will lead you to your passions and to success, however you define it.”
1. When you work hard at something you become good at it.
2. When you become good at doing something, you will enjoy it more.
3. When you enjoy doing something, there is a very good chance you will become passionate or more passionate about it
4. When you are good at something, passionate and work even harder to excel and be the best at it, good things happen.
