“Real artists ship.”
An old saying at Apple Computers, often attributed to Steve Jobs, brings to light the company’s culture and the importance of delivering on product design. However there’s a deeper meaning to this quote. It speaks to life’s accomplishing goals by delievering on them. It speaks to what it means to be creative.
While it’s great to innovate, design and create, it’s also important to share and deliver to others. Sometimes this means publishing your own words, or stepping out to showcasing your photography, or verbally communicating your idea to the right people.
In order to do so, you’ll have to overcome a lot of excuses; possibly the most ensnaring is perfectism.
Perfectism will always eventually become an obstruction.
You can tweak, adjust and perfect your work as long as it’s sitting in front of you. Endlessly.
