“The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.” — Walt Disney

“Improvements are only temporary until they become part of who you are. The goal is not to read a book, the goal is to become a reader. The goal is not to run a marathon, the goal is to become a runner. The goal is not to learn an instrument, the goal is to become a musician. Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become. No single instance will transform your beliefs, but as the votes build up, so does the evidence of your new identity. This year, focus on the identity you want to build."—James Clear

“Change your thoughts and you change your world.” — Norman Vincent Peale

“The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existence.” —Albert Einstein

"Reflection requires stillness.

One cost of rushing from thing to thing is that you lose the space to think. Hard work matters, but nonstop motion often hides a quiet truth: you could have used your time better.

If you never pause, you confuse activity with effectiveness. Make time to think. Walk outside. Sit quietly. Create space. Then move again, but this time on purpose." — James Clear

“I learned to write by writing. I tended to do anything as long as it felt like an adventure and to stop when it felt like work which meant that life did not feel like work.” - Neil Gaiman

“Make your art. Do the stuff only you can do. The urge starting out is to copy and that’s not a bad thing. Most of us only find their own voices after we’ve sounded like a lot of other people but the one that you have that nobody else has is you. Your voice. Your mind. Your story. Your vision. So write and draw and build and play and dance and live as only you can. The moment that you feel that just possibly you’re walking down the street naked exposing too much of your heart and your mind and what exists on the inside, showing too much of yourself. That’s the moment you may be starting to get it right. The thing I’ve done that worked the best were the things that I was least certain about.” - Neil Gaiman
