We create things that we love, we're passionate about and that we believe in. Then we put it out there with a sense of pride, ambition and bravado. At that point, we completely cede control of how others will react, what they'll say or what they'll do with this thing we've created.
If all constraints and considerations were to be removed, of what would you want more?
I've learnt that whilst my mistakes, successes and failures will always shape me, it doesn't define me and it's never a key metric when I need to measure myself or my life holistically.
Professionally I consider myself an entrepreneur, but in life, I'm much more a Maker of Mistakes. This is something that has become so entrenched in the way I live my life and the lessons I've learnt (from my mistakes) have empowered some incredible victories and successes.
My problem is that I have too many ideas at present, which means the gap between any one of those ideas and actually executing on them is growing.
