Success won't matter if everything is easy. We celebrate big achievements because of the work and sacrifice it takes to succeed.
I watched Faith Kipchoyge’s 4 minute mile attempt today with my daughter and wife.
It was so moving to see the hoopla surrounding the attempt. Millions of people gathered to watch the fastest woman of our entire species attempt to do something impossible.
She didn’t break the 4 minute mark, but you can clearly see how much she put of herself into this singular, focused effort. That’s worth celebrating.
We used to celebrate art, we used to create for the sake of creating. But everything is content now, and there’s pressure for it to be fast and constant and relatable.
Don't forget why you started making art in the first place. Human creativity is vital, and the world needs it now more than ever.
