Create *BEYOND* Yourself

FREE MOTIVATION ON ERIC KIM NEWSLETTER >

Dear friend,

Upon much deep thought and philosophizing — I think I got it figured out when it comes to artistic and creative matters:

Create BEYOND yourself.

What does this mean? This means:

Our lives are limited and short … and thus … the goal of life is to augment ourselves in order to create beyond ourselves.

For example with materialistic matters– there is only so much equipment and gear we need. Once we have the ‘best’ tools for artistic creation… then what? It isn’t to enjoy these things for the sake of it. It is channeling and harnessing these tools in order to create things. To share things. To publish things.

This is the great upside of online publishing (especially to your own self-hosted blog or website). No gate-keepers. Nobody stopping you but you.

How to create and share beyond yourself today:

Create your own website/blog. Easiest is wordpress.com, then next is wordpress.org (self-hosted website blog on bluehost.com).
Once you have your own website blog, publish fearlessly.
Realize that everything is a work in progress. This means publish BEFORE things are ready. We seem to be fascinated by rough drafts from famous writers, or even sketches of famous painters (the working sketches BEFORE the final product). Thus think — one day future scholars will find fascination with you sharing your works in publish.
Just make it ‘80% good enough‘ and hit publish. This means to ‘satisfice‘ (satisfy + suffice) the ‘minimum viable’ concept.
The more you publish, the more creative and fearless you will become.
