So if you find yourself up against a challenge that hurts, just remember: Not one of us knows what the hell we’re doing.

We can get excited about an audacious and semi-ridiculous goal while remaining unattached if it doesn’t work out in the end.

The solution to productivity and ‘getting ahead’ is being engaged. Being engaged means being present with whatever’s in front of you.

If you keep doing something long enough, you cannot fail.

When we can just do one thing at a time, a funny thing happens. We start to enjoy the thing, no matter how mundane.

If our sense of passion is dependent on certain projects, professions, clients and conditions to be just right, guess what happens…? The search never ends.

Ever find yourself stuck on a really tricky decision? No matter how hard you try and think about the right move, you just can’t wrap your head around what the right decision is. I’ve been there many times.

You ever get that voice in your head that asks: ‘Am I doing the right thing with my life?’ Yes? Well. Me too. A lot.

I see that I am still here. Still alive.

I am here — this place where few venture: the quiet source of creative insight.
