Daily Mindset
“The carpenter doesn’t show up to the job with a single hammer, and a single nail.”
To the carpenter, no two jobs are the same.
Despite years of experience, the carpenter knows their toolbox is only as good as their last project.
Think of every skill we practice as a vote towards a larger goal.
The goal to always build the toolbox.
To never accept things because of a way we did them in the past. To always stay open to the next “tool”.
As students of our craft, we can draw many similarities to the carpenter.
Let’s treat every “job” as an opportunity to build, but not just in a single way.
The project, but also, the toolbox.
