You Don’t Need All the Answers

You’re probably not exactly where you’d like to be in life right now.

Your business isn’t as profitable as you’d like it to be.

You don’t have enough time to do everything you want to be doing

You don’t see your friends and family as often as you’d like to.

You have a few more pounds around your waist than you’d like to have.

You can picture the life you’d love to have but you don’t have the answers on how to create it.

Sometimes it’s not about having the answers, though.

It can be enough to accept that while you don’t have the answers today, you’re on a path that will lead you to the answers as long as you keep moving forward.

It might not be tomorrow, next month, or even next year. But by building small habits, practices, and systems you can develop the confidence that every day you’re moving one step closer to finding the answers, and the life, you’re seeking.

Learn. Meet new people. Ask more questions. Admit you don’t know. Commit time to deep work. Take the long view. Find the things that help and do more of them more regularly.

Accept that you don’t need all the answers today in order to take one small step closer to where you want to be.

Take comfort in the fact that you’re moving in the right direction and enjoy the journey.


Every Sunday I publish an exclusive article on my newsletter that hopefully provides a new perspective, encouragement, and maybe even some occasional wisdom.

It’s something I’m proud to create and I’d be honoured to deliver it to you. If you’d like me to share it with you please subscribe here.

Hi, I'm Jeremy, I'm glad you're here.

No matter what you create, I'm guessing you spend a good amount of time feeling lost, hopeless, and unsure about how to get from where you are to where you want to be.

So do I. And so does everyone doing creative work.

This is the Creative Wilderness.

Every week, I publish a new article in my Creative Wayfinding newsletter about how we as creators and marketers can navigate it with more clarity and confidence.

If you're building something that matters, but aren't quite sure how to take the next step forward, I'd be honoured to have you join us.
