The only way we get better is by failing. A lot. It’s hard to fail publicly, but sharing our fails helps everyone grow.

Why??

The only way we get better is by failing. A lot.

It’s hard to fail publicly. But sharing our fails helps everyone grow—maybe my project gives you a creative idea, or maybe you know a better technique that could help me. That trade is the whole point.

So here’s my commitment: I open my sketchbook once a day. No pressure to make it good, no plans to polish it. Then, once a week, I share what I’ve been working on. Some of it will be ugly. Some of it might accidentally be great. All of it is practice.

If you want to join in, tag your own ugly art with #AnUglyADay. Let’s fail forward together.
