That thing that made you weird as a kid
could make you great as an adult
—if you don’t lose it.

The main thing
is to keep the main thing
the main thing.

Superheroes and saints
never make art.
Only imperfect beings can make art
because art begins in what is broken.

Ignore what others may be thinking of you
because they aren’t thinking of you.

Contemplating the weaknesses of others
is easy;
contemplating the weaknesses in yourself
is hard
but it pays a much higher reward.

Things do not need to be perfect
to be wonderful.
Especially weddings.

If your goal does not have a schedule,
it is a dream.

Cultivate an allergy to average.

When you lead
your real job is to create more leaders
not more followers.

Your enjoyment of travel is inversely
proportional to the size of your luggage.
This is 100% true of backpacking.
It is liberating to realize
how little you really need.
