What I learned from studying the first creations of famous creators:

1. You don’t need to wait for a life-changing insight to start sharing your ideas — you just need to start.

2. Your early work may not be great, but it may contain the seeds of greatness within it.

3. Don’t overreact to initial criticism, don’t panic, and most importantly — don’t give up.

4. You can’t know what your “thing” will be until you start. You’ll discover it as you go.

5. Just because you don’t hear about the creations that didn’t catch on, doesn’t mean they weren’t crucial in a creator’s development.

6. Big things start as small things.

7. Your first attempt at something probably won’t be great, but it may not be as bad as you fear either.

8. Be the kind of creator who solves problems — not the kind that just complains about them.

9. The more you care about your audience when you have a small one, the more likely you are to attract a big one.

10. Nothing can stop you from making something and putting it into the world. Find a way.
