Great people do things before they're ready...You might find out something about yourself that's really special and if you're not good, who cares? You tried something.

You have to be where you are to get where you need to go.

Symmetry is pleasing but not as sexy. Einstein is cool but Picasso knows what I'm talking about.

Don't treat your heart like an action figure wrapped in plastic and never used. And don't try to give me that nerd argument that your heart is a 'Batman' with a limited-edition silver bat-erang and therefore if it stays in its original packing it increases in value.

I had no idea how to get guys to notice me. I still don't. Who cares?

As you navigate through the rest of your life, be open to collaboration. Other people and other people's ideas are often better than your own. Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you, spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life.
