“Don't be dogmatic about something just because it's the only tool that you are really comfortable with and you don't want to explore another one, because then that makes you feel weird. [...] Just think about what is actually useful, what is something that is actually going to address my needs. And try to avoid the hype train, try to avoid that feeling of FoMo.” – Suz Hinton
