It’s going to be very sloppy and very bad—and that’s the way it should be.</li> <li>Perfection isn’t found in inactivity.<br> If it doesn’t exist, you can’t make it better. Start writing.</li> <li><strong>Motivation is found in the doing.</strong> You can’t sit around and wait to be inspired. You have to start. You have to execute.</li> <li><strong>Get your script on paper.</strong> That will forever and always be the catalyst behind moving it to completion.</li> <li>Elevate your script with each revision.<strong> Your job isn’t to make it perfect on the first try. </strong>Writing is an iterative process.</li> <li><strong>Get your script in front of people who are going to give you positive, constructive criticism.</strong> You’re not looking for compliments or kudos at this stage.</li> <li>Don’t try to justify everything once you’re given feedback. This feedback is to help elevate the first draft of your comic. Apply it where it matters to move it forward.</li> <li>Surround yourself with talent, not people. Quality over quantity.<br> Invest.</li> <li>At the beginning stages of building a brand, by no means should the words ‘cheap’ come out of your mouth.</li> <li>Stand on the principle of value in all you do.</li> <li><strong>Fold story into every single aspect of this process from start to finish.</strong></li> <li>Story doesn’t start and end at the script. It has to go into everything else</li> </ul>

You aren’t always going to feel like doing this, but push through.</li> <li>Invest today, reap the benefits tomorrow.</li> <li>Don’t be afraid to play the long game.</li> <li>You’re going through what you’re going through to learn something.

Believe in you goals or fear your goals.</li> <li>Your bigger goals should be ambitious and scare you a little bit.</li> <li>Don’t let goals sit in the idea stage. Execute on them. It’s not enough to just talk about it.</li> <li>Learn how to reverse engineer your goals.</li> <li>Reverse engineering is the process of building the goal backwards to see the steps it would take to get there.</li> <li>When your team meets in person, the relationships should elevate.</li> <li>Meeting in person allows conversations and ideation to continue. Online discussions start and end when the connection is started and then shut down.
