There's no map for being an artist.

Positive thinking is hard. Worth it, though.

In other words, If you don't take action, you won't get any results You are not your resume, you are your work

If failure isn't an option, then success isn't either. Success is just failure repeated until it works.

Everyone has a comfort zone. Worth considering: How hard (and how often) are you willing to work to get out of it? You can turn that into a habit if you choose.

You're competing against people in a state of flow, people who are truly committed, people who care deeply about the outcome.

More process, less innovation. More operations, less innovation. More management, less innovation. More entrepreneurs, more innovation.
