I hate it when people over-complicate things. Life is complex, it's not that simple, it's messy - so they say.
Really ?
Honestly, deep inside, I believe that the most powerful principles are those that are based on simple mottos :
No pain no gain ( you have to push beyond your comfort zone if you want to "grow" )
Just Do It ( don't think too much - act !)
No risk no reward ( results come through moving into the uncertainty )
Those principles feel simplistic, but they are not. Simple "simply" means it's crystal clear and obvious. It doesn't mean it's easy.
In fact, to live by these principles is hard as hell. You know you have to push myself. You know you have just to act. You know
you have to risk things if you want to see results. But you also know - it takes endless courage to do 'em.
But they worth aiming for, because they enrich your & their life (your peeps & audience), and that's the value an entrepreneur/maker
brings to the world.
So, whenever the confusion of life holds you in a deadlock, when complexity strangles you and you're grasping for air, take a deep breath and remember the basics, the simple lines that a creative life is all about:
1) Get up.
2) Be amazing.
3) Go back to bed.
