Creative hustle in two parts
Jiro Uno makes sushi.
Elen Lane makes clothes herself.
And Mike Winkelmann makes digital artwork.
Making something--anything--is (actually) the easiest part of creative hustle.
Doing it long enough--to get to the point where you're recognized for your work and for your craft--that's the hard part. (And the part that matters).
Alas, showing up (everyday) is 90% of the battle.
