More from Eric Church

Use feedback to develop your vision
Feedback is powerful. But without a larger vision, it can quickly lead you astray. Let the feedback you receive guide your vision, not hijack it.
Beware of boredom after success
Success can breed complacency. So don’t let yourself get bored! Take risks that push the boundaries of what you’re comfortable with.
When it comes to vision, nobody can have it for you
Your vision is yours alone to define. Pair that vision with conviction, and others will be eager to help you bring it to life.
Let your customers "own" your products
When you release something into the world, it’s no longer just yours. It’s part of your customers' lives. Celebrate that shift, and let them make it their own.
