A) Unsuccessful on the first try - this is a crappy blog post. It's like a blog post that says "I think people can fly, you're not limited to the ground! Start flying!" - cool, but how? B) That's the exact opposite of what I took away from Ira's sentiment - just because you're making crap doesn't mean you are forever going to be making crap, because every bit of practice makes you better, so keep at it.

Hey! I totally agree w/ B). I know that there are a lot of people out there that 'think' they are making crap, but they aren't. In fact,that's the creative process. They are on a path and it's getting better and better. What I meant to bring across in this post was the intention of making crap. I know people that intentionally make crap. This crap makes a lot of money. They know it's crap but they don't care. Sort of akin to these amazingly smart mathematicians and physicists working for Goldman Sachs rather than trying to solve the 'big' problems. I used to get paid by companies to make apps, websites that had no vision. No real purpose other than to make money. I see so many other people trying to find shortcuts to success, so they make crap. I just wish or want to live in a world, where people understand B). They see that they are on a process, that its okay for something to be crap, as long as the intention behind it is good. That's what Ira is saying. He wants to be good, but he isn't good yet, but it's the WANTING that makes the difference. Does that make sense? Anyway, thanks for the comments. I will try and flesh this out more before posting next time.
