Distraction.
Take a simple idea and take it seriously.
You are here.
It's all relative.
It took me years to play like myself.

Everyone, Someone.
When you get the money, the only thing you wanna buy is time.
The world will try and tell you who you are, and you have to tell yourself who you are. There's this ongoing battle, and somehow there needs to be a reconciliation between the two.
The more you compare, the less you differentiate.
Cover, story.
Distraction, focus.
Shoot.
Nothing draws a crowd quite like a crowd.
Well done is better than well said.
Slow down.
Switching costs.
Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.
The giver is the recipient.
