- Topics: [[Creativity]] --- - Regardless of external perception and eventual outcomes, always reserve the time and space to feel personal pride over your work. - The pride you feel isn't necessarily for the thing itself, but for how you made something out of nothing. How determination, effort, and persistence were exercised and invested to realize an idea. - Regardless of extrinsic value, this intrinsic value is something worth acknowledging, as it is something that no one can take away from you nor deny. You did that thing.
