Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Diane T. Creston
 

Many years ago, I was told that I should forget about a career in advertising because I didn't have a traditional background. I've always believed that there is no reality -- reality is perception.

Michael Jordan (1963— American Basketball Star, Actor)
You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them.

My reality was to create an advertising career. This was not only my reality, but my personal expectation of myself.

Five years into working for a $30 million dollar agency, I ran into the individual who gave me that advice. When she heard the news, she was shocked. That agency position was a springboard to a $70 million dollar agency, this time with a $35 thousand plus pay increase.

Needless to say, I didn't heed that ill founded advice. I choose to move forward toward my goal because if I didn't, I would never know the truth. I didn't know who was right, but I had find out.

At Creston, we've been privileged to have many long-term client relationships of 14 plus years. It's not only because of our creative work, but because we view our client's business as if it were our own. We hold firm to the belief of "there is no reality" because we create a new beginnings for client products, line extensions and services, and we do it all the time.

Marianne Williamson (1952- spiritual activist, author, including four New York Times #1 bestsellers, lecturer and founder of The Peace Alliance)

Success means we go to sleep at night knowing that our talents and abilities were used in a way that served others.

This belief is the reason that we have become involved in outreach and community service work...we believe in giving back. This work includes pro-bono packaging/logo designs for malaria and HIV-Aids, animal rescue and support for the homeless.

 

Chinese Proverb - Learning is a treasure that will follow its owner everywhere.

If you have a dream, follow it. Don't give up without trying. What you will need is a realistic plan, industry research, funding or grants, and the advice of industry experts to guide you.

The team you choose is vital, so choose your team with care.
