Stop being scared.

Fear is a natural, powerful, and primitive human emotion. We fear how other people may respond to our work. To be successful with your creative projects, you need to be okay with saying something others will disagree with. You can charter a course worth an opinion, one that may make others uncomfortable. It will be intimidating, so what, stop playing small for the sake of others. Be bold with your ideas. This is how you stand out. Play big. Your work deserves it.
