> The Big Hypothesis is that writers who accept and love themselves as they are, are the most prolific and resilient

i really, really, really like this.

Reason: I think a lot of my mental block (doesn't matter if it's writing. as long as it's anythign that risks being wrong in public eyes, like sales, marketing, etc) is when I don't accept myself as I am. I will probably use this as inspiration for a newsletter issue of mine as well.

Thanks for writing this!

My inner weirdo salutes to yours!

And the best piece of advice I got for writing consistently is to capture all my feels in PKM (Kendrick Lamar), then transfer that to the page to let the feelings marinate and eventually give form to a piece.
