The world is big. Our life stories are unique. Many others will never realize your childhood epiphanies, let alone your existence. Allow people to grow and inspire others to grow.

You can be responsible for your information diet. You can choose the pages, feeds, and networks you construct, visit, and give mind to. Find out how you can introduce yourself and others to what will be loved. Work with peers to create spaces meeting your consumption needs. This becomes more valuable the fewer relevant spaces there are.

Tired of your perception of the status quo? Think beyond your domain. Escape your current directory. Bridge across echo chambers or even connections themselves to gain perspectives once thought impossible. Practice remixing, like how artists remix songs they like or find promising. Enough mediocre attempts can strike gold by accident.

Fame doesn't always confer survival. Questions can pave the way. How can you share your work better? How can you make yourself more visible? How can you join the good graces of those you respect the process of?

Personal spaces often skew to few topics and less when abstracted. Even prolific authors have select specialties. Let people like what they like. Let people publish what they want to. Join them in their efforts when it's suitable.

Describe likes and dislikes to curate your experience, audience, and future reflections. However, be careful what you abdicate your power to. Communicating how you want can influence your surroundings and encourage others to communicate similarly.

Sometimes, patiently waiting is the answer. I had an earlier draft of this post, but I'm grateful that more recent inspirational material led me to a better iteration.

People can improve. Let those you care about improve. Help them improve if you can.
