This article really spoke to me and was so direct and real that I can really relate to the advice and problems they presented. In the beginning of the article, they talked about students taking too long to begin a project. This absolutely applies to me because I am someone who likes to think about what I am about to take on, but of course, this leads to overthinking. They gave the advice of, “It’s not the idea that matters-- it’s what you do with it”. Instead of waiting for the perfect project, I need to take note to begin something and worry about the final result later.
Drawing from second-hand sources is also a problem for me. I originally use it as inspiration, however as the article states, it lacks my personal connection with the topic or piece. I am also trying to achieve projects that ‘project my voice’ and will continue to look at what I am passionate about and what could represent me for future topics.
