Interesting stuff Steve! I actually have a piece in the queue that also ties back to Rick Rubin but in a different way. This is a nice, different perspective that's both similar and distinct from my own in a number of ways. Particularly as I shift my focus more toward entrepreneurship I find my relationship with some of aspects of design and creative work is changing in ways that are counter to the truisms I came up on. Will be sure to link back to this once I've wrangled my own thoughts.

Can't wait to read it! I'm trying to channel all my knee-jerk reactions to stuff on Twitter into content that might be actually useful to people. I genuinely think Rick Rubin is a fascinating personality, but I'm also deeply allergic to putting anyone on a pedestal, whether it be him, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, (arg, why are they all white men), etc... :)

Nice. I like that approach. Yeah Rubin's been on a huge media tear recently to promote his new book. I'm a longtime fan and even for me it's been overwhelming. Gotta imagine it's gonna sell some books though! haha
