The power of the internet
Howdy folks, below you'll find the most useful resources to help you think, create and build better.
I don't hate many things in life. But I hate moving house. Originally I planned to take a 1 week hiatus from the newsletter, but here we are 3 weeks, 1 new house and 1 illness later.
Anyway, one of my clients sites is featured on the Webflow homepage which is pretty cool.
Besides that I'm stoked to start getting back into a routine and creating again.
Alrighty, let's get into the Filter!
I. Every time I get stuck I remind myself that it's better to create something bad than nothing at all.
You can improve something bad... you can't improve nothing.

End Note
The Sunday Filter relies on word of mouth to reach more people, if you’re enjoying the newsletter I’d really appreciate you sending it to a friend or sharing on Twitter.
Have a fantastic week!
