Episode 2141: Leo Babauta shares two essays on growing your craft and your business. First, he explains how working in public, like a street performer, delivers the instant feedback that builds real mastery of your trade. Then he makes the case for entrepreneurship built on confidence and trustworthiness instead of manipulative marketing tactics. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://zenhabits.net/god/ and https://zenhabits.net/markety/ Quotes to ponder: "Instant feedback is the most valuable thing you can get." "Be a street performer. There's no better way to get amazing at something." "The fear of losing business will always be there to some extent, but don't be driven by it."
