When We Intentionally Seek Out The Difficult

The People Who Are Good In The Long Run Fail A Lot, Especially At The Beginning. So, When You Fail Early, It Might Be Worth Realizing That This Is Part Of The Deal, The Price You Pay For Being Good In The Long Run. Every Rejection Is A Gift. A Chance To Learn And To Do It Better Next Time. An Opportunity To Figure Out How To Bounce, Not Break. Don't Waste Them.

No One Can Be Responsible For Where Or How We Each Begin. No One Has The Freedom To Do Anything Or Everything, And All Choices Bring Consequences. What We Choose To Do Next, Though, How To Spend Our Resources Or Attention Or Effort, This Is What Defines Us.

Art Isn't Only A Painting. Art Is Anything That's Creative, Passionate, And Personal. And Great Art Resonates With The Viewer, Not Only With The Creator... Art Is A Personal Gift That Changes The Recipient. The Medium Doesn't Matter. The Intent Does. Art Is A Personal Act Of Courage, Something One Human Does That Creates Change In Another.

I Think It's Fascinating To Note That Some Of The Most Successful Organizations Of Our Time Got There By Focusing Obsessively On Service, Viewing Compensation As An Afterthought Or A Side Effect. As Marketing Gets More And More Expensive, It Turns Out That Caring For People Is A Useful Shortcut To Trust, Which Leads To All The Other Things That A Growing Organization Seeks.
