March's Quote

At the start of each month I pick a quote that applies to what I'm experiencing or focusing on at the time. You're more than welcome to join me on your own blog. If you do, please leave a link to your post so I can see the quote you choose!


"Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it's just not that good. It's trying to be good, it has potential, but it's not. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase, they quit... it is only by going through a volume of work that you will close that gap, and your work will be as good as your ambitions..."

-Ira Glass

okay this is a bit of a long quote for today but it's something that's been on my mind a lot lately. If this resonates with you I recommend listening to the whole quote!
