Things to make you go Mmmm…

"To encourage creativity by sharing more inspiration than any electronic artist.”
Three thoughts for your creativity and one on mine.
3 for you:
It’s ok to start small.
“Never lose an opportunity of urging a practical beginning, however small, for it is wonderful how often in such matters the mustard-seed germinates and roots itself.” - Florence Nightingale
Fight the resistance with automation.
“Adopting an assembly-line mindset can also help shake you of creative resistance, where anxiety or perfectionism hold you back from publishing regularly. When the working up and releasing of new creative works is on autopilot, there’s little time for paralytic self-censoring.” - Scott H. Young
Be a unicorn.
“History is replete with ambitious, successful people. Decency, honor, kindness, we see much of this. To be good and good at what you do? This is more than rare. It makes you a unicorn.” - Ryan Holiday
1 from me
Just Start Somewhere. Just do Something.
“You don’t need the perfect plan. You don’t need confidence. You don’t need clarity.
You need movement.
Most people don’t get stuck because they can’t do the work - they get stuck because they’re waiting to feel ready. Readier. Smarter. More certain.
But momentum isn’t created by thinking. It’s created by starting.
Start messy. Start small. Start badly if you have to. One action changes your state. One step reveals the next.
Just start somewhere. Just do something.”
Until next week
