Don't fix me; Love me for what's broken.

What people want is the extra, the emotional bonus they get when they buy something they love.

You dont need to convince everyone. All you need to do is motivate people who choose to follow you.

Loving what you do is almost as important as doing what you love, especially if you need to make a living at it.

The problem with holding a grudge is that your hands are then too full to hold onto anything else. It might be the competition or a technology or the lousy things that someone did a decade ago. None of it is going to get better as a result of revisiting the grudge.

Now for the first time, you can choose yourself. You can be responsible for what you do and how you do it. You have to do the hard work of finding and pleasing an audience.

Getting picked is fine if it happens to you. But it's not a plan. It's a version of waiting and hoping.
