Do you ever feel that feeling of resistance to start something new or difficult? Do you ever fear failure? And more importantly: do you let the fear stop you doing it anyway?Heres something I learned in the past years: if youre not failing every once in a while, youre not trying hard enough.This works on many levels.

This weeks topic for Illustration Friday is EnergyWell, I do punch bag training twice a week and the workout gives me so much energy.
