If you want to start any creative endeavor, just start it today. What is one step that you can take to do it today?" - Liz Moody "Know that it's not going to live up to the version in your head, but that doesn't matter because you're going to refine and make it better over time. That is how it is for every single person on the planet who is embarking on a creative endeavor." - Liz Moody "It's so fucking brave just to start. You can pat yourself on the back, applaud yourself just for taking those first steps, rather than berating yourself for not being as good as someone else." - Liz Moody Connect with Liz Moody Website: LizMoody.com Instagram: @LizMoody Connect with Amina AlTai Website: aminaaltai.com Instagram: @aminaaltai TikTok: @theaminaaltai Linkedin: linkedin/in/aminaaltai
