Treat your work like a love letter
A love letter is “sendable.” We take our time to understand how the other person enjoys our communication and strive to match it. We leave ourselves open by admitting our want for someone else.They are honest and vulnerable.
If your kid picked up those letters, they would smile, knowing that their parents loved each other. That effort and vulnerability show up in work. As a result, it reads well.
Therefore, treat your work like that.
Consider the audience, be honest, and make sure that if someone who you were close to read it, they would appreciate it because our work is our connection to the world.
When you short change the work, you only play yourself. Make it count.
