everybody has the right to charge whatever they want for whatever services they want to provide. if you are a completely inexperienced child and you want to charge $1,000/hr for advice on how to make "phbtbttbtt" sounds, you are free to do that
you can do whatever you want. be shameless. be audacious. you don't have to let other people's negative self-talk and internalized bootlicking worship of traditional authority, gatekeepers, guilds, etc define how much your services are worth. you can let the market decide.
charging more doesn't mean you have to become some sort of ivory tower elitist. you can charge your top clients big $$ so that you can afford to provide free and discounted services to kids and underprivileged folks who need it. in a way you're redistributing the wealth
you don't have to make yourself smaller just to appease the feelings of cowards. they will never be satisfied with you no matter what you do, because they are perpetual dissatisfaction engines
we can all uplift each other, support and challenge each other to be better, stronger, more effective, make more money, help more people. we can expand the pie and grow the small local economies amongst ourselves. we can invite new people to join us, fresh eyes and bold hearts
💪🏾❤️🔥 abundance mindset

let people give what they can

create a nourishing and supportive environment that people want to give to and be a part of

it will never be perfect but you can improve it as you go

David Bowie experimented a lot with his appearance and image – you could say maybe he tried 100 styles – and of all of his looks, it's the lightning bolt – Aladdin Sane – that has become the designated Bowie Schelling point, the universal Icon
when writing an earlier tweet I found myself assuming that the lightning bolt persona was Ziggy Stardust, because that's the name I've heard most often associated with Bowie. But no, Ziggy predated Aladdin Sane, and there's a moderately iconic outfit associated with that persona
I suppose the sun(?) on the forehead was an attempt – and to be clear, people do still appreciate this. it succeeded at what he was trying to do
