As always, Conor, great stuff! Love the lessons you learned and share them with us. I find writing so liberating and illuminating. I enjoy your conversational style; it always feels like you are talking to me, which is a rare skill. Keep up the fantastic work, my friend, and many more years!!

Thank you for the advice! So true about setting artificial deadlines for yourself. We should aim to write when we're inspired and have something of value to share.

Much appreciated post!

"Realise that nobody cares about you"

It's a horrible truth when you think about it for too long. So best to think about it short and perceive its liberating value.

Thanks for the reminder!
