What is a Maverick?

An individual independent in thought and action. The term itself is birthed from a real person by the name of Samuel Maverick. Read his intriguing and inspirational story here.

Why paradigm-bending pop-art?

Four reasons:

  • Images give the viewer enough information to underscore an idea, without pigeon holing it. Images are suggestive, but the viewer is able to take the message or lesson he or she most needs to hear—and that message may be different for each viewer.
  • Most  of us don’t have time to read long blog posts but we still crave mental stimulation. In a few seconds, an image can accomplish the same or more than a 1,000 word article.
  • Images are remembered for a lifetime, the same can’t be said about most articles we consume.
  • Images are fun and easy to share.

 

What should I expect?

Every few days, expect to see a new fun, bright, and paradigm-bending maxim in the form a pop-art image with a concise supporting explanation. My objective is to help humanity reexamine the way we’ve been told to view “reality.” Why?  Because altering perspective is the catalyst for both creativity and revelation – both of which can initiate a better life, business, and/or ___ (fill in the blank).  Subscribe here to get these images delivered direct to you.

Perception is the problem. And the opportunity. That’s why I’d like to offer some Maverick insights that expose an alternative and constructive view of everyday life.

“It is one of the commonest of mistakes to consider that the limit of our power of perception is also the limit of all there is to perceive.” - C. W. Leadbeater

The details:

If there is one thing all humans want it’s opportunity – the chance to do more, relax more, see more, and be more. The challenge is, opportunity is not encountered, it’s created. And creating more and better options (especially in today’s world) requires an uncommonsense approach to life.

We’re learning that many rules from the past century do not necessarily apply today.   Traditional modes of thought and conventional knowledge only lead to the reproduction of past results – and emulation is not a valid strategy. Creativity is the new currency and the Mavericks, as always, are cashing in.

What do these Mavericks have in common? A collection uncommon of life philosophies (maxims) that enable them to see, do, and create things beyond old paradigms of thought.

So… welcome to the Maverick’s era; where thinking different is not only wise, but necessary. This blog challenges widespread assumptions and misguided common sense that keeps people stuck in a mundane, unfulfilling existence.

Despite the negative press, there is still a lot of opportunity – especially for those who wake up now and adapt their game plan.

Whether you are a seasoned businessperson, greenhorn entrepreneur, curious employee, striving student, parent, blogger, marketer, techie, artist, or simply have a pulse and seek an additional edge or more creativity, then this blog will help you discover and create opportunities you didn’t know existed. Want more freedom?  Creativity?  Clarity?  Options?  Business?  Or a renewed supply of inspiration?  It’s all here.

Custom, commissioned art to embody and reflect your goals, values, and vision. Kent refers to these images as “Wall Compasses” because they offer daily reminders of the grand objective and the best path to get there. To accomplish this, Kent works directly with clients through a process of interviewing and observing (with possible site visits) to articulate, in visual terms, what the organization/team/family stands for.
