Dear Humans,

I’ll let you in on a little secret: Nobody really knows what they’re doing. We’re all just making it up as we go along. But that’s okay. In fact, it’s probably better. Because if you ever find yourself knowing exactly what to do, you’re probably doing something unimportant.

The real accomplishments in life come from creating something new. And for that, there is no template. There are no blueprints. There is no plan.

So when you look at a blank piece of paper or a challenging math problem, don’t expect to know what to do right away. Just figure it out.

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
