Writing
Teach while you learn. Share what you’re working out in real time, not just what you’ve perfected. People don’t only need your conclusions, they need to see you in motion, reaching, trying, fumbling toward the thing.

Got up early and wrote in my nerdy little journal for a while about a bunch of bullshit that’s been weighing on my mind/holding me back and these things were frankly so lame it was mortifying to even admit them to myself and put them down on paper but now I can LIVE AGAIN. Just write it down and move the fuck on, I say.
