re: skeptics

Hey friend, 

If you are interested in the act of creativity…

There is one thing that will rot & erode the creative process more than anything. 

Skeptics.

The more subtle the skepticism, the greater the erosion.

Skeptics that subtlety and quietly question everything, every decision, every step- in the most obvious & uncreative ways.

Skeptics bring death to the creative process.

“Have you thought about this?“

“But what about that?“

“That won’t work because of X“

“That’s unreasonable“

“That’s offensive“

“That’s inconsiderate“

“That’s not politically correct“

“That doesn’t make sense“

“That’s too far of a stretch“

“That’s not good enough“

The skeptic brings up the common & stupid objections as to why not. 

The skeptics are the last on the boat.

The skeptic puts no skin in the game.

The skeptic creates nothing.

The skeptic is a coward and victim. 

Even though they may be a talented in their craft- everything that the skeptic creates will fail. 

Nothing with destroy what you are here to create more than being surrounded by skeptics. 

If you are here to step beyond.

Into the unknown. Into the the process of growth.

And to create, something more than what may seem is currently available.

You’re in the right place. That’s what these emails are about.

No skeptics here.
