30x30
Thirty things I’ve learned in 30 years. In the order I thought them in.
– Just because you wear black, doesn’t make you a good designer.
– You can tell a lot about someone by the type of shoes they wear.
– Share the work you do.
– Sometimes you have to create something just to get it out of your system.
– Don’t be afraid of failing, fear settling.
– Hard Work > Talent > Experience > Education.
– Everything that has brought joy to my life started with making an unexpected decision.
– Interesting happens after midnight.
– There is such a thing as too honest. Be that.
– Life is an endless journey of unlocking your passion. Enjoy the discoveries along the way.
– Work backwards. Ask yourself what legacy you want to leave behind and aim for it.
– Take your own advice.
– Every creative project should start on paper.
– Not until you’re 100% authentic, will you be 100% happy.
– Spend your money while you’re still breathing.
– Avoid swearing.
– Ever so often, mark all as read.
– Pop music isn’t a sin.
– Give credit.
– If people tell you you’re crazy for doing something, chances are you’re doing something right.
– Compliment others.
– Strive for perfection but understand that done is better than perfect.
– Nothing “is what it is”.
– Don’t obsess about time but always wear a great watch.
– Sing. Dance. Video tape it.
– That rainy day you’re waiting for is never going to come.
– Vulnerability is the cousin of greatness.
– Be humble enough so that people don’t mind when you brag.
– Love over everything.
– Always create, never hesitate.

“If we have goals and dreams and we want to do our best, and if we love people and we don’t want to hurt them or lose them, we should feel pain when things go wrong. The point isn’t to live without any regrets, the point is to not hate ourselves for having them… We need to learn to love the flawed, imperfect things that we create, and to forgive ourselves for creating them. Regret doesn’t remind us that we did badly — it reminds us that we know we can do better.
— Kathryn Schulz
