You can be anything you want to be, and you can start today, instead of waiting for some opportunity.

I'm just suggesting that when you're faced with fear and anxiety, don't medicate. Meditate instead.

I think when you're very dedicated to something and you're engaged fully, you become a giver.

Your purpose is to act on the resources God gives you. If God gives you a bucket of fish, you have to distribute those fish. If you don't, they're going to rot, attract a bunch of flies, and start stinking up your soul.

You don't expect a 94-year-old white guy to pick "Dope," which was an awesome movie not even close to being considered by the Academy. And that's what it's all about, like, promoting people who might not otherwise get promoted and celebrating people who might not get celebrated.

I used to think anxiety and insomnia drove me to success, but it was the stillness that let me be good at anything. When you extend the seconds of stillness, that's when you're able to think and learn.
