Fast, easy, guaranteed

“…pick none.

That’s the work that’s worth doing.” –Seth Godin

What this tells me is that I’m doing work that’s worth doing right now. Writing this book has been neither fast, nor easy, nor is it guaranteed to succeed.

What else this tells me is that as soon as my writing is any of those things, I need to reach further. Especially easy. If it gets too easy, I’m not pushing myself hard enough to tell even better stories than I have before.

Slow, difficult, uncertain. That’s more like it.
