Having the resilience to build back up
Life is gonna punch you in the face, and you're gonna get back up again
Creativity breeds constraints
Almost certainly, your idea is wrong
I didn't invent it. I just wrote it down
Every collectible is a one of one

Playing between the familiar and unknown
Web3 is the answer
To cultivate comfort with uncertainty and impermanence
Embracing discomfort is part of it
