Even when we think we’re getting away with something, the repercussions often catch up to us eventually.

The key is to create a version 1.0 and improve as you go. Just as I wrote some time ago, progress is better than perfection.

Have you ever felt like your head is full of ideas that haven’t gained expression because you haven’t found the “best time” for them? You are not alone.

Preparation, no matter how simple or overlooked, can lead to great outcomes when the right opportunity arises.

Don’t drain your creativity tank while waiting for accolades or validation. Create because it fulfills you. Share because someone out there might need what you’ve made, even if they never tell you.

In my opinion, perfection is often the enemy of progress. I would rather encourage you to embrace progress. If you can’t find the courage to take a step, how will you ever gather the confidence to take a leap?

As the post that inspired this piece states, don’t let adulthood turn you into a sad person. Challenges will always come, and you will always have responsibilities to shoulder. But amidst them all, find your joyful moments and dwell there more often.

Sometimes, we get unpleasant results not because the task was difficult but because we made it harder than needed. In trying to prove ourselves, we overthink, overanalyze, and overdo, losing sight of the most important requirements.
