You can't find your voice if you don't use it.

You're ready. Start making stuff.

What a good artist understands is that nothing comes from nowhere. All creative work builds on what came before. Nothing is completely original.

Google everything. I mean everything. Google your dreams, Google your problems. Don’t ask a question before you Google it. You’ll either find the answer or you’ll come up with a better question.

You are, in fact, a mashup of what you choose to let into your life. You are the sum of your influences. The German writer Goethe said, "We are shaped and fashioned by what we love."

If I'd waited to know who I was or what I was about before I started "being creative," well, I'd still be sitting around trying to figure myself out instead of making things. In my experience, it's in the act of making things and doing our work that we figure out who we are.

Art that only comes from the head isn't any good. Watch any good musician and you'll see what I mean.
