There Aren't Any Shortcuts To Expertise With Sara Vieira

When something is easy for us, it more than likely is just familiar to us. It's easy to forget how challenging it was to learn what we know. When we tell someone who is still learning that something is easy, it diminishes the accomplishment of learning something new.

People who are good at things put in the time and the practice to get where they are, there isn't a shortcut to experience. We can gain experience by building things. But what do you build?

In this episode, Sara Vieira talks about how to find ideas for your side projects, and what you can do to make them fun and sustainable.
