Don’t worry about a style. It will creep up on you and eventually you will have to undo it in order to go further. Be like a river and accept everything.

What does that mean?

Be like an eagle and drink lots of alcohol.

I think he means a river goes where it goes, it doesn’t pick and choose, it just goes. Unless the Army Corps of Engineers gets in the mix then all bets are off.

Particularly helpful when founders get stuck on stuff like branding at early stages. Nice reminder to let that stuff emerge!

@David
That’s probably it. I guess a river adjusts to many things. And changes it’s nature to do so, which almost seems like an opposing point…
Be like a pebble and refuse to compromise.
Be like a cliff and invest in real estate.

@GeeIWonder and others: I also think of David Allen’s (GTD) use of “Be like water. If a pebble comes, water gives pebble reaction. I a boulder is chucked into it: Boulder reaction”.
I like the sentiment. An important addition to the “Find your style!” that artists so often get to hear. “How?!” I want to ask. “Why?!”.
