There's Always Room for Improvement

There are few things more rewarding in life than becoming a master craftsman at that which you love to do. A sense of confidence, meaning, and skill comes with doing something for years on end.

But I've also learned that a sense of hubris can accompany that ability if one isn't careful. I probably failed to take in some valuable lessons over the years because I thought I already knew what someone was trying to teach me, or thought I could figure it out on my own. 

The truth is, someone will always know something you don't. And even if they do know something that you do, they'll be interpreting it from a completely different perspective.

No matter where you're at, or how good you are at your craft, there's always room to get better. Always.
