Not Everything Needs to Be A Masterpiece

Have read that more than a few times lately. Probably a few time just on Bluesky.  

But is it being said as world weary advice or an attempt to be a "thought Leader"? So much of the later on social media, followed by subscribe to my Medium/ Substack/ Patreon/ buy my book. 

Gets tiring. Not that it isn't bad advice though. As a creator, you need to make stuff, but the drive to perfection on everything is detrimental. Luckily I lost that a long time ago. 😌 My career in engineering was always deliver as good as can be done in the allotted time. Usually as fast as possible. Having a family also meant "my time" was always limited.

I think finishing something is far more important, than trying to perfect it. 

The Music + Comic itself isn't a Masterpiece either.  A music track far too like what I have done before and features a Lemans Hypercar comic I have yet to find the approach to make it funny or interesting. Still a work in progress.  

Feel I should come up with something more engaging and interesting in my comics and music + comics, but doing that is hard. Haven't found what yet. Also, getting older makes you far less relevant to the popular status quo. Young people don't care what old people have to say about anything anyway, which is what most of these have been like.  

Our cat, sleeping in the chair next to me as I type this, is 9 years old today. He has been a constant companion the last 4 or so years. Spending most of each day in my studio with me.

I am very happy he does. 

Update:2025/8/23 A week since kids and grandson went back to Tokyo, and we didn't get sick! Grandson came down with a fever yesterday, but that is probably from the daycare he attends. Poor guy.
