You’re going to get criticised either way. Do what you can to reduce the criticism, but don’t let it get to you. Don’t let the potential for criticism get in the way of producing and shipping your best work.

Do whatever you can to put the work out there. And once it is out there, recognise that it is out there. No amount of criticism will change that fact, and it won’t change the work either.

In other words, focus on putting your best foot forward each and every time, and be proud when you do.
