Mmmm... Signal, attention, focus and reputation.
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:
The soft signal of effectiveness.
“I’ve learned that triggering a tribal response is antithetical to having an effective behaviour & belief-changing message.
It's nowhere near as sexy to caveat heavily but when it comes to important subjects, the most compelling arguments are sometimes the gentler ones.” - Chris Williamson
Just tiny insignificant details.
“Stop wasting your brain space on the million tiny things that don’t matter. It’s time to use every second of your day for all the amazing things you know you’re capable of.” - Mel Robbins
Reframe your focus.
"Observation is a skill, and like any skill, it can be trained and honed.
Even if you're not a negative person, you may be skilled at noticing negative things. Sometimes people are good at noticing the reason things won't work out or have a tendency to fixate on the latest distressing story.
But you can train your eye toward the opportunities each day quietly presents. You can become competent at noticing your good luck: the little moments of joy, the stranger who helped, the small things that went right, the opportunity in front of you right now.
What are you competent in observing? And which types of observations seem to serve your life best?" - James Clear
1 from me
Reputation Compounds Quietly.
“Reputation doesn’t usually arrive all at once.
It builds through small signals repeated over time.
Showing up. Doing what you said you would. Releasing work that reflects your standards.
At first it feels invisible.
Then gradually something changes.
People begin to associate your name with a certain level, a certain style, a certain way of doing things.
Compounding works slowly.
Until suddenly it doesn’t.”
