“What!?”
“Steve Jobs!?”
“Me, a blogger!?”
“No, no. You pushing it too far!”
That may be the reaction of some of you right now on reading this title.
(Smiles)
Well, hold on a little bit, let me explain how that is true .
Steve Jobs is known as the co- founder, chief executive and chairman of Apple Computer.
But what does he really do? What’s Jobs’ work in the company?
Just like you, he is a product designer.
You may snap back:
“But I’m not a product designer; I’m just a blogger!”
Well, that’s my message to you today :
You Are A Product Designer Just Like Steve Jobs.
Dear friend, your content is your product. That’s what makes you a product designer like Jobs.
Your Content, Your Product Of Design.
Og Mandino said in The Greatest Salesman in the World:
“A mulberry
leaf touched by the genius of man becomes silk.
A field of clay touched by the genius of man becomes a castle.
A Cyprus tree touched by the genius of man becomes a shrine.
A cut of sheep’s hair touched by the genius of man becomes raiment for a king.”
In the same way, a piece of electronics touched by the genius of Steve Job becomes an iPhone.
So shall a piece of idea touched by your genius becomes a valuable content.
Conclusion
Until you start seeing your content as a product,you will never touch it with the genius of your design.
Start seeing yourself as Steve Jobs – a designer – so shall your product/content reflect the Apple Effects on your readers.
Remember it’s all mindset, if you see yourself as a product designer you will produce masterpiece but if you see yourself as “another blogger”, you will produce something short of the genius of design.
I’m a designer, I don’t know about you !
Dare to tell yourself that each day, and you will produce nothing less than a masterpiece.
