Aim For The Moon, Die In The Stars! - DATW 58
Did your library have lots of inspiration posters too? Motivational posters, posters about goal setting, that kind of stuff? This was one of my favorites and a terrible example for how to set goals. Well, at least if you're an astronaut.

Impostor Syndrome, Self Doubt, and Unhappy Clients - DATW 57
What do you do when unhappy clients make you feel like a fake, or that you're not cut out to succeed working for yourself? Stacey's Full Question: I just watched the youtube video on having ridiculously high expectations of yourself and I found your advice really helpful. However, I wondered how that would apply to freelancers who are learning on the job? For example - I am a fresh out of the box graphic designer. I learned online via distance learning and I am now starting to take on my first clients. I have been struggling with impostor syndrome, which has deepened now I am on my 6th revision of a logo for my first client - resulting in me feeling like I am not good enough. I started to question everything (ENFP here - hi), because if I am learning on the job then failure is not an option. And if I need to build my business based on reputation, then I need to make my clients happy. So, I am kind of stuck between having ridiculously high expectations of myself and also meeting expectations of my clients without feeling like a failure? So now I am not sure whether freelance is right for me - because as a people pleaser I am mentally beating myself up when I feel like I have not met my client's expectations. I think there is a question in there somewhere - hopefully, it makes sense. Any advice you have would be really appreciated. Thanks, Stacey

The Law of Attraction - DATW 56
The Law of Attraction was popularized by Napolean Hill (Think and Grow Rich), The movie The Secret, and many Gurus the world over. Is there something to this belief and way of thinking, or is The Law of Attraction utter BS? So what is the Law of Attraction? It's the belief that whatever we focus on in our minds will manifest itself into the world. As a follower of personal development, psychology, and science, you might imagine I have a few things to say about how The Law of Attraction works and doesn't.
