概要

 Ever wonder why your career isn't landing? Why aren't clients finding you? Why do people keep getting you wrong? I've been having this conversation with clients every day. In our ambiguity-obsessed world, people think being unclear creates curiosity. It doesn't. It creates assumptions. If you don't label yourself clearly, others will do it for you. And whatever they decide will be outdated, incomplete, or wildly wrong. From my radio days learning to be a "morning guy" to watching AI reshape how the world sees us, labeling isn't about limiting yourself. It's about being found for what you actually do. Featured Story Years ago, when I was booking film crews, I'd get calls from people wanting work. I'd ask what they do, and I'd hear the answer I hated most: "Oh man, a little bit of everything actually." Yeah, I know you can do everything. That's how you get good at one thing. But what do you DO? Because I need to categorize you in my database. I need a label. Eventually, they'd tell me their dream job, usually cinematographer or lighting director. I'd put them in my system. Done. Easy. When I needed a lighting director, I'd pull up a list of lighting directors. Labels made them hirable. Ambiguity made them invisible. Important Points • Ambiguity doesn't create curiosity; it creates assumptions that put you in the wrong rooms with the wrong people. • Markets and humans both need clear signals to quickly understand who you are and where you fit in their world. • AI reads context now, amplifying what you actually do across the internet, whether you label yourself clearly or not. Memorable Quotes • "If you don't label yourself, the world will do it for you, and whatever they decide will be outdated or wrong." • "Labels aren't about limiting yourself, they're about being found for what you actually do and getting paid for it." • "Walk your label loudly and consistently every day because the world is picking up on what you're all about anyway." Scott's Three-Step Approach • Decide who you want to be, how you want to roll, your style, and commit to it without all the flexibility excuses. • Walk that talk loudly in front of everyone, every single day, so your actions consistently match what you say you are. • Let AI and the world amplify your authentic consistency instead of exposing the gap between your words and actions.
