  • Chasing Dreams

    It doesn’t matter what you’re doing, you need to know when it is time to stop doing it. You might be writing a book, publish a site, or chase some other dream – everything has to have its limits.

    I know, that hurts. You dream about doing something, being someone, achieving greatness, and here I am telling you that you shouldn’t chase that dream forever.

    Not all of us can be rockstars, no matter how much we want to. We can, and should, try though.

    You shouldn’t give up easily either, never that, but when you set out to do something, to achieve a goal, then you need to know when enough is enough.

  • Inspiration

    I’ve got 2 minutes so let’s keep this short and sweet.

    Inspiration is difficult. It is not something you just find, or that you induce in a certain kind of situation. It is not dependent on a muse or any other mythological creature. It is not even about experience, or about a greater good of any kind.

    Inspiration is about hard work.

    You open up your computer, pick up your pen, press play on your recorder, and then you create something.

    The harsh truth is that anyone can do this, at any time. Everything else is just your disillusioned self trying to make what you do more important, and trying to protect you from being hurt yet again when reality hits you.

    Because, you know, not everything anyone does is great, or even good enough. Don’t blame that on inspiration, just pick yourself off the floor and try again.

    Now that’s inspiring.
