i already believe you're wonderful
do a thing and let yourself discover the same
make stuff all the time
if you want a thing to exist, do it
it doesn't have to be big or impressive or incredible
it doesn't have to be perfect
all the skills transfer, i promise
what you learn making a shoebox diorama is more useful and more important than a decade of enduring the working world
learned industriousness is a thing
i'm making a present for a sibling. it's a model of our childhood room.
i don't have the energy to do a lot today, so i'm just cutting a bunch of popsicle sticks. that's it. i'm watching internet videos and cutting popsicle sticks.
in this instance, the work IS mine to complete. doing a little is infinitely better than doing everything at some far-flung day when conditions are perfect.
here's what i've got today. tomorrow might be ten hours of progress. it might be nothing.
all i have is today and all i can do is what i put in front of me.
