I’ve been guilty of seeing a piece of artwork in a shop and thinking “I could have done that.”
But I didn’t.
I’ve also been guilty of seeing someone else launch something I was working on launching.
But they beat me to it.
For every remarkable project you’re working on, there are people out there who will …
1) Think they could have done it (maybe better).
2) Be frustrated that you beat them to it.
3) Question why you think you have the authority to do it.
4) Not give a damn about it.
5) Bash it because it’s not their idea.
6) Bash it for the sake of bashing it.
All of those people don’t matter, though.
The person that matters is the one who decides to ship their work, whatever their art form may be. It’s the person who ignores the 6 types of naysayers listed above and does the work that needs to be done. It’s the person who acts, who creates, who makes; not who thinks.
The person that matters is you, if you choose it to be.
Stay Positive & Keep Your Mind On Who Actually Matters
