Good, Boring Days

Didn’t feel like you created much today?

Maybe you chipped away at a project, took care of some things… felt you didn’t really make a dent in anything?

Perhaps you feel as though your peers are creating substantial bodies of work and your work feels comparatively…boring?

“History as usually written is quite different from history as usually lived. The historian records the exceptional because it is interesting.” – Will Durant

Peers share their highlights. As do many industry leaders.

But they all have boring days too.

Great things are built in boring days.

Embrace boring days and observe the amazing things you’ll make.
