Persistence can look a lot like stupid.
These days. Most of us have the attention span of a meth-addicted squirrel.
Every day is precious. You will never live THIS day again. It is ONE event in human history. Why not make it count? Time is a nonrenewable resource.
It takes great courage to write great books. Find your courage and find your voice.
The surest path to success is to learn to have a healthy relationship with failure. If we aren't failing, then we aren't doing anything interesting.
