I've tried to meditate, but I feel like I always overthink the process. When I need to calm my mind, I will go for a family hike...

I try to take the pain and find a way to use it in my work; I find that it makes the work deeper.

You are not responsible for everyone's happiness.

I look at emotional pain as something we need to go through in order to grow and learn.

Get outside of their comfort zone and try something new. You never truly grow when you're too comfortable.

You can't rely on the approval of others. I used to always look for praise from my directors to reassure myself that I was doing a good job. I don't do that anymore.

If the Devil is real, then God must be real, too.
