On the artist's journey we are redefining and reconfiguring ourselves and our lives.

Rule of thumb: The more important a call or action is to our soul's evolution, the Resistance we will feel toward pursuing it.

Artists, writers and people in creative fields are entrepreneurs by necessity. Nobody gives them a paycheck or picks up their medical insurance. The ones who succeed learn to think and act like 'independent operators.' I think people who are technically 'employees' have to think this way as well. The company is not looking out for you.

It's one thing to lie to ourselves. It's another thing to believe it.

If we were born to overthrow the order of ignorance and injustice of the world, it’s our job to realize it and get down to business.

The professional, though he accepts money, does his work out of love. He has to love it. Otherwise he wouldn’t devote his life to it of his own free will.

To labor in the arts for any reason other than love is prostitution.
