Persistence. Perfection. Patience. Power. Prioritize your passion. It keeps you sane.

Every job from the heart is, ultimately, of equal value. The nurse injects the syringe; the writer slides the pen; the farmer plows the dirt; the comedian draws the laughter. Monetary income is the perfect deceiver of a man's true worth.

Work was intended not to give a man a reason to live, but rather to give him a means to live.

If you're waiting until you feel talented enough to make it, you'll never make it.

You wander. You work nearly every job known to man, it seems, only to arrive at the wonderings of philosophy.

It is a healthy approach not to expect persons to turn out precisely how you would have wished.

In a sense, discouragement does not have to exist. Allow it to be rather the encouragement to honestly reconsider all the options, then, as necessary, shine on.

Even the richest of brands are robbed by poor character.

It might come a time to not follow your passion, so to speak, although it must be prioritized. It may be the case that your passion will serve as the medic, your peace of mind, alongside a higher calling, with your higher calling being the point man.
