Too Close to See Clearly


Sometimes we’re simply too close to our own work to see it clearly.

In this video, I flip through my notebooks and come across an idea that reminded me of something simple but important: distance creates clarity.

Whether you’re working on a creative project, building something, or trying to improve your craft — stepping back can completely change how you see your own work.

This is the first episode of Notebook Treasures, where I explore ideas, thoughts, and sketches from my notebooks.
