Playing with Voices, Free from Outcome
You know the feeling: surrounded by voices, each with an opinion. Do this. Don’t do that. Colleagues, friends, even the world itself—always suggesting who you should be. Rubin says the rarest skill is learning to listen to how you feel, without second-guessing. Whether you’re an artist, a builder, or simply living your life, that clarity changes everything.
