But for a lot of us, competence became the cage. This episode is about the feedback loop nobody warns you about: the better you get, the harder it is to leave. And what we build around the good thing to protect it.\nAlso, some honesty about why I called this show \"Terrible\" that I haven't said out loud before.\nMENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE\nBartleby the Scrivener - Herman Melville (1853)\nThe Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock - T.S. Eliot (1915)\nRobert Berglas - Self-Handicapping research\nTHE BOOK\nLessons From a Terrible Photographer is out now. It's part memoir, part field guide, and part honest conversation about what it actually costs to build a creative life. If this episode landed, the book goes deeper.\nGet it here: https://www.amazon.com/Lessons-Terrible-Photographer-Photography-Probably/dp/B0GRGLYKYS/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0\nLINKS\nWebsite: http://terriblephotographer.com\nSupport the show: https://www.terriblephotographer.com/support\nSubscribe to Pub Notes: https://the-terrible-photographer.kit.com/223fe471fb\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/terriblephotographer/\nPatrick on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/patrickfore/\nEmail Patrick : patrick@terriblephotographer.com\nEmail is always open.
