Craftsmanship Means Caring

David Sparks:

Craftsmanship means caring about what you create. It means you measure twice and cut once. It means you look at what you are creating from every angle and don’t cut corners. In short, craftsmanship means you don’t ship crap and you never mail it in.

Outlook is so important. When you look at the things you do as an art or a craft you start to own them. You care about them deeply. The things you do aren’t just tasks but a calling.

Craftsmanship is being intentional, meticulous, and methodical in what you create.
