After talking about tongue clicks, we dive into this episode's topic, the issue of setting standards for your creative work. Abrar wonders why people often set high standards for their projects that stifle them from putting stuff out. We realize that worrying about how much the audience will appreciate our work is a big factor, even though they aren't always as critical as we think. Zubair introduces the idea of capturing and immortalizing aspects of your life, with photography for example, reminding us that our future selves are also a part of the audience. And even if our work turns out to be unpopular, the enjoyment of the process may be justification enough. We also note that setting a high standard for quality comes at a cost, reduced quantity, and why that may not be ideal for people who've just started making stuff.
If you stick around till the end, there's also a surprise reveal from Abrar (which he was even surprised to have revealed).
