Every time you have to make a choice about anything, think Does this go toward or away from what I want? Always choose what goes toward what you want.

We are like violins. We can be used as doorstops, or we can make music.

If you truly feared failure, you'd be very successful.

A direct statement about yourself is considered objective only if it is negative. If it's positive, it is considered subjective. And 'objective' means it is accurate, and 'subjective' means it is conceited self-delusion.

DO IT RIGHT, DO IT WRONG, BUT DO IT. Squeeze your eyes shut and jump. Because a wonderful thing happens then. Your focus shifts from yourself, your nervousness, and your imagined inadequacies to the task at hand.

Your creativity is waiting for you like a dancing partner.

Whenever you do what you really love, your heart lifts, your mind opens, and everything changes. You wake up. That's what true adventure really is.
