We're telling a story. And the demands of that are different from the demands of a documentary. The audience must believe in order to keep faith in the story.

Take action. Every story you've ever connected with, every leader you've ever admired, every puny little thing that you've ever accomplished is the result of taking action. You have a choice. You can either be a passive victim of circumstance or you can be the active hero of your own life.

With the success of a show, you get an opportunity to call attention to things that you believe in.

We all go through life bristling at our external limitations, but the most difficult chains to break are inside us.

Take action. You can either be a passive victim of circumstance or you can be the active hero of your own life. Action is the antidote to apathy and cynicism and despair. You will inevitably make mistakes but at the end of your days, you will be remembered for your gallop, not for your stumble.

When you act, you're always playing a version of yourself. You can't bring more to the role than what you are
