For a few months in 2022, I drew one of these a week. One idea each, a single line under it — usually some version of stop thinking, start doing. Here’s the whole set.

You don’t need another course. You need to get going.

Don’t let learning turn into procrastination. Start with doing instead.

You don’t need to have everything figured out. Just start.

Action is what separates your reality from your dreams.

One hour of doing beats ten hours of thinking. Always err on the side of action.

Ideas are worth nothing. Execution is everything.

Learning without execution is just mental clutter.

Never failed, never learned.

Trying to make life better by piling something else onto an already full plate? Sometimes the move is to quit the wrong thing, not add a right one.

Success is built on failure.

Giving up is the only sure way to fail.

Four vicious loops every creator should beware.

Bind your tasks to a time. Or be bound by them.

Self-talk is your brain’s operating system — and it’s running 24/7.

Be grateful for what you have. Not content, necessarily. But grateful.

Pessimists sound smart. Optimists get rich.

Everyone wants change, but nobody wants to change.
