What does it mean to have character?
In this issue: defining character, how to protect your creative well, why "us" vs "them" is a superficial comparison, and what failure really is.
š¤ INTERESTING
A hit or a miss doesnāt define your character.

You may have heard of the famous Jim Rohn quote: āYouāre the average of the 5 people you spend most thing with.ā Iād add that your work is the average of the 5 types of content you most often consume.

Messing up and failing isn't a sign you're doing it wrong. It's a lesson to help you course correct.
