What I Learned From Interviewing Top Artists (Part 1) - @96yottea
Counting the days in chalk marks for when you can finally quit your day job, or obsessing over Instagram conversion rates in some jank ass analytics tool you found on megaupload, stops you from doing the things that actually make someone successful.
Passion for what you do and genuine self-expression are the only ways to be different and consistent enough to stand out among the crowd.
The more you try to follow trends, appeal to the algorithm or do a whole slew of things you hate to try to supplement your income, the further your happiness and passion get away from you.
The most successful and fulfilled among us are often the least preoccupied with "success."
Lots of people talk about this stuff, 96yottea walks the walk.

Imma be real this document is hella uncontroversial. I'm glad I read it, but what was the point of leaking this exactly?

Decent artists steal, great artists devour. How to make your art study a part of you and not just copy.
How the F**k Do You Draw Like That? #art

You're Avoiding The Most Important Thing
Why can't you achieve your 10 year goals in 6 months? This is one of my favorite thought experiments from the renowned contrarian and renegade investor Peter Thiel. Every time I ask myself this question, particularly when layered upon itself, I helplessly zero-in on the most important thing that I can do in any moment. If complexity is the biggest barrier to execution then focusing on the most important thing is the solution.
Often I find myself making things more difficult than they need to be because of my perception of what I'm trying to accomplish. As I waste energy and IQ on making my plans sound more officialized and well-thought out, I'm actually just making it harder to move the needle. If I've learned anything, it's that there are usually just 1 to 2 things that I'm actively avoiding out of fear or perceived difficulty, that produce 90% of the outcomes that I actually care about.
The awesome thing about Peter's exercise is that it can be applied to basically anything. In business the highest ticket item is typically pitching higher level clients or people that you feel are out of your league. In learning a new skill, it might be jumping to the part of the content where you feel most likely to be caught swimming naked. In other words, I've found that the things we feel intimidated by or the things that we are afraid to feel, are often an incredibly good clue to our best next move. At our most honest, we often already know what the most important thing is, but we invent clever side tasks to allow us to meander around the key needle movers. In true Tim Ferriss fashion, once the elephant is taken care of the other stuff often becomes obviously unnecessary or infinitely easier.
