Frustrated? Go Learn Something About What You’re Doing.

June 16, 2020

Dear Me,

Are you sitting trying to find the button in Final Cut do the thing you want it to do?

Do you think that you have to go the long way round to get things done and that it has to be challenging and take a lot of time because it’s important?

Does your gut tell you there must be an easier way?

Are you just banging your head against the wall?

Chances are almost 100% that someone has already figured it out for you and posted it on the web. 

It’s almost certainly being explained on YouTube by dozens if not hundreds of people.

Most of the technical things we are trying to do have been solved already. 

Most of the frustrations we have have been felt by someone out.

You can’t stop the suffering by banging your head against a wall. 

Go find help. Many, many people want to be helpful. Go find them.
