Do a Lot of Work |
I'm admittedly in the middle of what can only be described as a typical day - feeling basically like I'm in over my head. From putting together site copy to designing an engaging user experience, the highs and lows of working on the web and the immediacy of the information out there is sometimes hard to handle. And wearing a lot of hats at an organization, as most of us do, adds even more complexity to the mix. When you have a job that challenges you, as I am fortunate enough to have, then every day is inherently a challenge. But it's sometimes easy to get discouraged, and to want to do nothing because I can't do everything.
That's why I love the video I saw today from Ira Glass talking about good taste, failure, and learning from your work. While he talks more about storytelling, I think it's relevant for everyone. It was exactly the boost I needed, and one of the many reasons why I love the internet as a medium.
