My 9-month experiment with cafes from the corner shop
> Tiny progress is still progress.
That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where cafes stopped feeling new.
I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.
The detail that surprised me was how much the corner shop changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.
