‘Teddy Roosevelt said, “Comparison is the thief of joy,” and this was never truer than for creatives. It’s important to focus on your own journey, relish the adventure of it, celebrate your accomplishments and successes no matter how seemingly small, and reframe failures for what they truly are: lessons that help us become better writers and bring us to the place we need to be.’
