His timeless advice for creatives: “Don’t try to do everything. Do something, do it well—then try the next thing.” You’ll learn: How to build a career by stacking specialties—not chasing everything at once Why the right format (and length) can make or break a message How institutional perspective sharpen your questions What travel, failure, and finishing actually teach you in the long run Explore more: • 45 Forward archive: 45Forward.org • Caregiving resources: CaregivingNav.com • Bill’s site & signup for Thought for the Day: Internet-Humor.com • Bill’s book: "20 Years of Internet Humor" (available via major booksellers)
