I learned something from an awesome creative, really early in my career.

So we were in this big meeting and the CDs started talking about weekend work, but like, really sure of themselves and that everyone would shut up and just go along with it.

Then, that awesome creative turns to them and say: “Weekend work? Humm...I’m sorry guys. I’m not the ‘weekend work’ kinda guy. So what can I do for you starting Monday morning at 9:30am?”

Since I saw how successful that was, I started imitating him and I never had someone pushing back.

I guess that just comes from such a self confidence place that nobody really dares to question that.

Of course you have to back yourself up with great work and maybe over deliver a bit to show you are all in. But it has been working for me for 7 years now.
