Something I wrote_

Should we be focusing on improving our weaknesses or bettering our strengths?

Here's my take→

‍

Something I found_

If you're not at least a little bit nervous about the thing you're creating, you can probably dig deeper.

- Jeremy Enns

I'm nervous about my book and thegarage.studio. I think that is a good sign.

Something else_

How you view failure will determine how much success you have.
If you fear it, you will hold back.
And if you hold back, you will not be brave with your ideas. Ideas require you to be at your bravest in order to stand out.

‍

That's it for this issue.

See you in 3 days_
