Ira Glass on Working Through the Suck
Merlin Mann | Jul 7 2008
YouTube - Ira Glass on Storytelling #3 Video featuring terrific advice from This American Life’s Ira Glass on having the tenacity to get better at the creative work you’re passionate about — even through the times when you know what you’re making isn't as good as you'd like. I admire Ira's courageousness in using himself as an example of how to do it wrong. (Also, now that I’m aware of that tic where radio people punch every third word, I’m hearing it all the time.)

So, to anyone who's worked through the suck, is there really an end in sight? Does it ever get any easier? p.s. @brandon - Dude. You're 20. Give yourself a break. » POSTED IN:
