Find Your People

My third interview was with Rose Black, it was fantastic. She's a poet, and I had a great time talking with her. The thing she told me was to "find your people" and to not be afraid of critique. This applies to everything in life, so I'm just throwing that out there.
I realize this is our last interview, but I guess for future reference (if you ever have to find an interviewee for something), don't be afraid to ask everybody. Don't hesitate, some of the people you'd least think to ask will be the most help to you. Possibilities are endless, don't shy away.
I've spent a lot of time letting opportunities pass me by, or being shy. It's a waste of time.
Step outside of yourself, find and pursue something you love, and you'll find the world isn't what it seems to be. It's often better. "Or worse. Either way you're stuck here." (Auriana Viegas Telephone Interview) ....Isn't the pessimism BEAUTEEFOOL?
