Publishing your work increases your luck. Did John deere build the future, or a cage? No more mr. Nice guy.

One “must” for this week: Publishing your work increases your luck

Aaron Francis shares how publishing your work increases your "Luck Surface Area" by multiplying what you do with how many people you tell, making unexpected opportunities more likely.

It's also how I see each post and illustration I share, as a "lottery ticket" that we never know who is going to see.
