True story.
In 1985, Steve Jobs got kicked out of his own company. Brutal, right? But instead of sulking, he let go. He took a step back. Started fresh. Focused on what he did best—big ideas, bold moves, and changing the world.
A decade later he came back and turned Apple into the empire we know today.
The lesson? When you stop holding onto things you shouldn’t be doing, you make space for the things only you can do.
You’re a photographer. Your gift is storytelling, composition, capturing once-in-a-lifetime moments. But if you’re buried in edits for hours, days, weeks… are you really doing what you’re best at?
Let go. Hand off your editing to The Ginger Lab and get back to what actually moves the needle—shooting more, creating more, and growing your business.
Steve Jobs didn’t waste time on things someone else could do. Neither should you.
P.S. If you haven’t heard Jobs tell this story himself, do yourself a favor and watch his Stanford speech. It’s legendary.
