derrick sivers: Would you make your art if you were the last person on earth? For me, it's an immediate yes, of course. A musician friend asked him this question and was freaked out by his answer. She said, ultimately, everything i do is for other people. I said, Ultimately, everything iDo is for myself. Even when i'm providing a service that seems generous, i'm really doing it because it seemed like a fun system to build. If people like what i've made, that's just a bonus. This is related to yesterday's post, travel without social praise.
