Experience is truly the only thing that makes experts so expert.

When a performer goes out on a stage, they may feel the audience is judging every aspect of them and their life. In fact, all that poor audience is doing is waiting to be entertained a little.

Few artists are able to accurately assess just how valuable and great their work is - or how much it will be appreciated by its audience. In other words, insecurity is the name of the game.

Experience is truly the only thing that makes experts so expert.

You cannot become a master until you actually take the leap, do the work, make several thousand mistakes, and live to tell about it.

How many of us give up along the way because we'll never be the expert that so-and-so is?

There really is no such thing as failure. There is only the rearrangement of plans and surrender of ego.
