Now we can all enjoy his sly wisdom in a manifesto that reminds us, no matter what field we choose, to embrace chaos, be nosy, and outrage our critics. So what if you have talent? Then what? When John Waters delivered his gleefully subversive advice to the graduates of the Rhode Island School of Design, the speech went viral, in part because it was so brilliantly on point about making a living as a creative person. Presented in four chapters-The Crossroads, The Origin of Should, Must, and The Return-inspired by the hero’s journey outlined by Joseph Campbell, The Crossroads of Should and Must guides us from the small moment, discovering our Must, to the big moment-actually doing something about it, and returning to share our new gifts with the world.ĭownload Make Trouble Book in PDF, Epub and Kindleįrom an icon of popular culture, here is inspiring advice for artists, graduates, and all who seek happiness and success on their own terms. It explains the importance of mistakes, of “unlearning,” of solitude, of keeping moving, of following a soul path. It talks about the most common fears of choosing Must over Should-money, time, space, and the ultimate fear: total vulnerability-and shores up our hesitation with inspiring stories of and quotes from the artists and writers and thinkers who’ve faced their own crossroads of Should and Must and taken the leap. It gives eye-opening techniques for reconnecting with one’s inner voice, like writing your own obituary (talk about putting life in perspective). Why knowing what you want is often the hardest part. The difference between going to work and becoming one with your work. It’s about the difference between jobs, careers, and callings. And it gives every reader permission to embrace this message. The Crossroads of Should and Must has a universal message-we get to choose the path between Should and Must. Luna expands her ideas into an inspirational, highly visual gift book for every recent graduate, every artist, every seeker, every career changer. And it was her own personal journey that inspired Elle Luna to write a brief online manifesto that, in a few short months, has touched hundreds of thousands of people who’ve read it or heard Elle speak on the topic. “Must” is the thing we dream of doing, our heart’s desire. Who hasn’t asked the question “How can I find and follow my true calling?” Elle Luna frames this moment as “standing at the crossroads of Should and Must.” “Should” is what we feel we ought to be doing, or what is expected of us.
