Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and that's something you want to do.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Well, you certainly can and gain confidence
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,within time, but it would be best that

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,already very passionate about,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that you've been exposed to so that

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that allow you to understand what is good,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,what is better, because then it becomes
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a point of who are you doing this for.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Are you just an artist painting something
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for yourself or you're creating something

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I would think that knowing the audience

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,someone curate whatever type of
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,information; I see them as a disposal
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that I think are the key elements, then,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you got to be very transparent and
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,give full credit to whomever you're
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,gathering in and expose, actually,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the best qualities of these sources
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and people, and add something of your own
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that is the ultimate quality of the curator,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,like DJ, I mean, what's the difference

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I think those same qualities apply
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,somewhat to a content curator,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that is the ability to listen closely to
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,what type of audience at the moment

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,he or she is collecting make sense to them
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so you may have to change titles,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you may have to change descriptions,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,images, order, how you juxtapose things
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but you have to customize the flow

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,your point of view, not be completely
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,suppressed when you're curating.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There may be different instances
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and situations and business why is

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that all the time you would have to
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,bring out your personality but there is
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,no way that you cannot somehow stand
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in some positions so it would be a
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,generic position, it may be a more
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,defined position for those who take
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,political stances or research things where
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,there are opposing views but in
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,getting there, you may be a great curator
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,by just standing out for your position
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or maybe even a better curator by curating
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,all the positions that are out there
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and allowing people to discover which one
