Ira Glass on Creativity

This is a terrific video from This American Life's Ira Glass on having the work ethics to get better at the creative work — even when you know what you’re making isn’t as good as you think it should be.

He believes you should continue doing more and more work, and perfecting your craft, even though your current work may suck ;-)
