obsessing over quality often demands that you slow down, as the focus required to get better is simply not compatible with busyness.
I see no reason to spend your life writing poems unless your goal is to write great poems.
the path to excellence is aligning what you do with who you are. Lean in, or better still, dive in, headfirst. The first step is to look inward and think deeply about who you are and what you’re made to do.
be extremely critical of all your work until it’s great. it’s not about you personally, it’s about how people feel and receive the work
