Different game, different fun

My wife and I play a lot of card games.

One of our favourites is called Keyforge. It’s a game that puts two decks of totally random cards from a huge pool against each other. You never know what’s coming next. That’s one of the reasons it’s fun.

Another of our favourites is called Ashes Reborn. It’s a game that puts two decks of carefully selected cards from a small pool against each other. You’ve planned your moves carefully. That’s one of the reasons it’s fun.

Both card games. Both totally different. Both fun.

The same goes for that project you’re working on right now.

It’s not the same as the others.

It may have few of the traits you admire in the work of your peers.

But that’s what makes your work fun — it’s different. It’s yours.

Build that.
