People spend their lives waiting to do things until they feel they’re 100% “ready.” Yet, you’re never going to be 100% ready. The first time you do something, no matter how great you think you are, is probably going to be awkward as hell.

The world celebrates those who celebrate themselves, and who are willing to share their gifts with as many people as possible.

We have this idea that we should:

1. Learn to do the thing
2. Do the thing in secrecy
3. Talk about what we did and gain all the approval once it’s done

That’s actually not how it goes. It actually looks more like this:

1. Start doing the thing
2. Learn as you go
3. Speak proudly the whole damn way through.
