Grab the Reins and F*cking Do it
Watch the talk
All we want to do is make the world more fun and pretty!
If you want to make cool things you have to learn the tools it takes to make them.
"Learn the thing that you need to learn to make the things that you want to make."
"You have to tell them what our value is because if you're not advocating constantly, if you're not constantly educating people, you're not changing the game."
If you have a thing you wanna do, don't be lazy and wait.
That desire to learn is really the only thing that you should have picked up in college.
it's just so liberating to be able to make anything that you want to make.
I really love to punch web designers in the face who refuse to learn html and css, because if I'm a letterer and can learn to do it myself in six months for a thing that's completely unrelated to my career, I just think it's lazy if you don't learn yourself.
"That desire to learn is really the only thing that you should have picked up from college."
If you have a thing that you want to do ... just grab the reins and fuckin' do it.
It's fun to learn things that aren't helpful.
You learn the tools that you need to learn to make the things that you want to make.
