Most of my experiences in the industry have been positive, but a few people have done me dirty. Early on, I wasted too much energy chasing grudges and negativity. That’s a creativity killer. The biblical truth that “Vengeance is mine, sayeth the Lord” rings true—our job isn’t to get even but to keep moving forward. The universe doesn’t bless evil; it takes notes. While some people’s experiences with those bad actors differ, I’ve seen firsthand that those who sow harm pay a price—sometimes quietly, sometimes spectacularly. You might not see it, but trust me, it happens.
