Apologies are not pass/fail.

It's not how hard you hit. It's how hard you get hit... and keep moving forward.

When you see yourself doing something badly and nobody's bothering to tell you anymore, that's a very bad place to be. Your critics are the ones telling you they still love you and care.

Follow your passions, believe in karma, and you won't have to chase your dreams, they will come to you.

There's a limit to how many times you can read how great you are and what an inspiration you are, but I'm not there yet.

Show gratitude. Gratitude is a simple but powerful thing.

I'm a professor - there should be some lessons learned - and how you can use the stuff you hear today to enable your dreams or enable the dreams of others. And as you get older you may find that enabling-the-dreams-of-others thing is even more fun.
