Magazine
I think that a lot of the time, I don't do things because they seem impossible. I think to myself, it's too hard and it'll take too long, so why even try? Or I'll see somebody else's work and I'll think, I'll never be that good so why even try? I've thought about trying to write a novel for quite a while, but every time I think about actually doing it, I can't see the point. I think that my problem is that I'm afraid to make something bad. I think that above learning all the layout design and everything that goes into making a magazine, what I'm really going to get out of the magazine is proving that things that are really hard are possible, and they can be good. Making a magazine is such a huge job, and to be able to start from scratch and finish with a product we like by the time we wanted to finish it will definitely give me some confidence that I can do big projects by myself and get them done and maybe even like them.

Good post! Scratch the surface of why something doesn't get done and always you'll find fear. Scratch the surface of fear and often you find a lack of information. Good post.

I think I'm the same way when it comes to not doing this. It' 30% laziness 70% lack of confidence that I would ever do it right.
