- [Doing vs Done-ing](https://sarr.is/doing/) — 2023-09-07
  Art is ephemeral. What you’ve done doesn’t matter. What you DO is everything. Like it or not, “What’s next?” is the most important question. But it must be answered well before it’s asked. Otherwise you’re no longer an artist taking…

- [What to expect from a business coach](https://sarr.is/coach/) — 2023-04-16
  A great advisor doesn’t seek credit for ideas and strategy. They’re ostensibly invisible. They lead the advisee to wholly recognize epiphanies and strategy as their own. This sense of agency and ownership is required for a mentee to achieve greatness.…
- [Words vs actions](https://sarr.is/words-actions/) — 2023-02-21
  We say what we believe is right. We do what we feel is right. Many times these differ. To deconstruct someone’s success, don’t study their words. Observe their actions. Good decisions aren’t always rational. —Morgan Housel Leave a comment
- [Everything’s made up and nothing matters](https://sarr.is/but-why/) — 2023-02-19

- [Happiness vs Joy](https://sarr.is/joy/) — 2022-08-23
  Happiness is fleeting. It’s a brief moment that’s created externally. It’s a dopamine hit. But joy is a state of mind. Joy is ours for the taking. Joy comes from within. To be joyful is not to be perpetually happy.…
- [Gratitude](https://sarr.is/gratitude/) — 2022-07-02
