Every single important thing we do is something we didn't use to be good at, and in fact, might be something we used to fear.

Just because something is easy to measure doesn't mean it's important.

Everyone we interact with is changed forever. The only questions are: How will they be different (and how different will they be), and how will we be different (and how different will we be) as a result?

Anxiety is practising failure in advance. Anxiety is needless and imaginary. It's fear about fear, fear that means nothing.

The habit of doing more than is necessary can only be earned through practice.

Rehearsing failure is simply a bad habit, not a productive use of your time. When you choose to visualize the path that works, you're more likely to shore it up and create an environment where it can take place.

When you put your ideas in the world, then, and only then, do you know if they're real.
