Mmmm... Ignorance, focusing, tolerance and worth.
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:
Ignoring is bliss.
“Ignore: The news. Complainers, angry people, high-conflict people. Anyone trying to scare you about a danger that isn’t clear and present.” Naval Ravikant
Refocus.
“To improve your life:
Focus on what you like instead of dislike.
Focus on people who focus on what they like instead of dislike.” — Gurwinder Bhogal
Essential uncertainty.
“Uncertainty is the essential, inevitable and all-pervasive companion to your desire to make art. And tolerance for uncertainty is the prerequisite to succeeding.” - Art & Fear by David Bayles, Ted Orland
1 from me
Comparison and Self-Worth
“When you measure your worth against someone else’s highlight reel, you rob your creativity of oxygen.
Their path isn’t yours. Their timeline, their tools, their voice - none of it defines you.
You’re not behind. You’re becoming.
Create from where you are, with what you have. That’s where the real gold is.”
Until next week
