The internet has really amped up our ability to compare ourselves to others and the achievements of others—usually to our detriment. Add perfectionism into the mix along with it’s occasional companion known as confidence (or lack thereof) and you have a crippling combination of things that might prevent your voice from being heard or even putting pencil to paper. It’s something many of us, myself included, struggle with regularly.

It’s more imperative than ever to be able to find that intrinsic motivation to do things and to simply revel in the experience of personal discovery.

Btw, your bulleted list definitely resonates! Congrats on the newsletter Sam. FWIW, your willingness to tackle new things—be it a podcast, TED talk, new business—is always inspiring.
