There's a sameness and comfort level you get living in a country like America.

As you get older and you realize you really don't know as much as you think you know, you listen more. Because then you think, now I need to be more receptive to the things I don't know. That's how you learn.

I tell you what I love - and I think you get better as you get older - when you're younger and you don't know what you don't know, you tend to talk more about what you think you know. You shut out the opportunity to learn what you don't know.

I'm not saying that you shouldn't go to college or you shouldn't finish your degree, but sometimes people have a very clear vision about what they want to do, and they just want to get on with it.

I love stories. When I tell a story, I try to think of people sitting around a crackling campfire.

If you look around my room, you see lots of lists. I'm inspired by what's up on the wall.

I try to encourage people to identify the things in life that they really want to do, so that over a period of time they can design or steer their life towards those things.
