"Fun only comes when things go wrong" is one of the best things I took away from this video. I've never looked at overcoming challenges like this before. I think this will help with my mindset when I am going through challenges and it will help me to keep going. Ok, I lied...As I listened on I got so many great takeaways from this video! I will definitely have to listen to this again. I hope someday I build a town worthy of the Zaccura stamp of approval. Thank you for this video. I felt like you shared many messages that I needed to hear.

I have been the second type for years and I am trying to be more planned if that makes sence. Graphic design which I also do helps me with that. Also I have been cleaning Mimaki ploter/printers and I understood the struggle. But you fixed it! this is why I give my printers/ploters a spa day after hard work. :D And sometimes they STILL dont work. "Wah you put the paper 1 mm to the left, time to riot!" Note: For now I dont need a town, a village is enough.

That totally makes sense! And I knowww printers are emotionally sensitive🙄 I'm sure it will be an awesome village!!💪💕
