It's clearly more fun to make the rules than to follow them.

The only long-term motivation is self motivation. So hire people who are self motivated and get out of their way.

My best advice: win little battles. Get in the habit of winning, of shipping, of having customers that can't live without you. Once you've demonstrated you know how to do the art, then go after the windmills.

I intentionally abandoned the hard stuff early on because not only do I think it's useless, I think it's a distraction.

Success brings with it the fear of blowing it. With more to lose, there's more pressure not to lose it.

Art changes posture and posture changes innocent bystanders.

Just about anything worth doing is worth doing better.
