QUOTES
“We’ve been so focused on the details that we lose perspective…we lose a sense of the big picture of what we’re trying to create.”
“You make a bunch of changes, then the next day you undo them all. You work for days or weeks on a certain approach or angle, then one day you wake up and you hate it.”
“When your lack of enthusiasm converts into negativity, it is time to step away—and fast … You don’t want to associate pain or bad feelings with the project.”
