The biggest excuse I throw at myself for not starting a new idea is "It's been done before! There's no point!" And of course it has - that story, that idea, that event, that situation. Everything's been done a gazillion times... But not by YOU, with your voice - your unique voice. That's the reason to tell the story - no one's heard your version of it yet. (So, if you don't tell it, you're actually really selfish and I want you to GO AWAY AND THINK ABOUT THAT) (I have no idea what this GIF is, btw.)
