When we don’t yet know where we’re going, we don’t wait. We move forward in the dark. If nothing - Rick Rubin

Find the sustainable rituals that best support your work.

This doesn’t just apply if your goal is to make art of lasting significance. Even if your goal is to make fast food, it will likely taste better if you experience the best fresh food available to you during the process. Level up your taste.

Living life as an artist is a practice. You are either engaging in the practice or you’re not. It makes no sense to say you’re not good at it.

The real work of the artist is a way of being in the world.
