Thanks Joe! I use Designer in Canva. I've included the link (I have the paid version so I'm not sure how much credit you get in the free version) Microsoft designer also does a great job

I really like your writing style Rylan. I can tell you’ve been doing this for a while!

My example of when I got lucky was a very odd one! It was my first ever article post on Medium. It got 2000 claps and was my most viral post to date (I’ve posted 30 since!). I’m not sure why at that says about me: I either got lucky fast or my writing as gotten worse! 🤣

Great job man! Thanks for sharing. I appreciate your kind words. I find this very relatable as my first article on medium got +-500 claps... Nothing did any better after that so I guess we're in the same boat. Let's blame mediums tweaked algorithm instead of admitting that our writing got worse? 😂

No way, what a coincidence haha! Yeah, I’m definitely blaming the algorithm for that then! 😂 One day we will beat our first ever post 💪

This is great Rylan! I’ve always followed what Seneca said “Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity”, this is very true and the way you’ve written about this really zones in on that!

Thank you, Nikki. Appreciate the kind words! Well said—luck often shows up when preparation meets opportunity. We can create our own luck by staying ready and seizing the moment when it comes.
