Yo guys, what is up? It's Tiniham aka sloth Illustrator designer back with another daily shorts hasn't really been much daily though. It's been a month since my last mini podcast So I I've been itching to jump back on it's been freaking crazy Just got back from like a eight-day road trip and RV up the coast Doing stuff for a coffee company called Dutch grows and creating a bunch of content along the way And then before that I was in Monument Valley and it's just been the it's been crazy travel And so I'm finally sitting settling down for like the next Month or so and I am itching to get started on this still kind of trying to find a flow If I'm gonna stay stick with a daily short or kind of change it up and to interview style I'm not sure yet, but guys I've got so much so many exciting things to talk about I'm releasing a new design at the end of the week called mask off and I'm super excited about it I will tell you guys more about that design later in the week on the podcast, but it's going to be super epic I'm so pumped for that So I'm gonna talk just a couple minutes on this tweet that I put out yesterday if you don't follow me on Twitter, you can follow me on Twitter at at Timmy Ham and Basically what I said was nothing will ruin your life more than your Basically what I said is nothing will ruin your life more than comparing yourself to others and thinking you should have it all figured out the excitement and adventure of life is the unknown don't kill your adventure while trying to live someone else's and It was just thinking of the other I was thinking the other day because So much is changing this year for me and just trying to navigate the new chapter of my life We're having our fourth kid and where I'm at my life what I'm doing and before I knew it It was like I was thinking about other people and I'm like and I don't like I don't know why I'm comparing myself to other creatives because this is My journey and as soon as I realized that I was doing that and I instantly like just killed that thought of comparing myself to someone else It was like I was free. I felt so happy and you know my whole life up to this point has literally been unknown You know when you work for yourself, you don't really know what's gonna happen the next day and so you live kind of like on a day-to-day basis almost and at the beginning of All this when I first started doing stuff on my own it was super stressful and I was always kind of like checking my bank account literally every day and make do I have enough money for tomorrow and am I gonna be able to support my family and Until I learned to just forget about that and keep doing what I was doing granite everything was flowing well It's a difference if you're like oh crap like I'm not gonna be able to eat tomorrow That's that's different, but I was bringing in work But I was still worried and comparing myself and I was I was worried about Tomorrow and the next day and it was killing the enjoyment of the whole process of like working for myself and finding Like this cool new adventure in my life And so guys if you're starting something if you're in something right now It is so much easier said than done but mentally try to sit and just think every day and try to just kill those thoughts of worry that you're not gonna be able to do something Or it's not gonna happen or if you're worried about the unknown You know not knowing if in two years or if in three years you're still gonna be able to do what you're doing now because all that matters is right now And you're not guaranteed tomorrow You're not guaranteed in a year And so why worry about the next day or the next year or the next ten years because we don't even know if we'll be here So enjoy this moment enjoy this adventure that you're in right now And I promise you will feel so much better and like I said, it's so much easier said than done And I'm not perfect at this.
I'm probably get it 30% of the time, but when I do it feels great So I just want to give you guys a little bit of that to snip it Hope you guys dig it and like I said later on this week I've got some good news if you guys have any suggestions on what you want to hear in this podcast I'm gonna continue to try to do these daily shorts and start this all back up shoot me a tweet at Timmy Him or call in or leave a comment if you're listening through iTunes Don't forget to subscribe on that iTunes and like it rate me do all that fun stuff But anyways guys, I love you guys.
