The point is to spread joy and inspiration, which leads to a higher global vibration, which leads to liberation.

Most of us, when faced with a new opportunity, will tend to second guess our intuition. We get an invitation or an opportunity and we tend to reason it out, try to make sense of it, ask for advice, weigh the pros and cons, etc. We think we are being prudent by soberly considering all the "facts", but in reality, we are killing the essence of creation. This is where we fail. So how do you know which path will give you the very best memories? Relax and trust the process.Your mind needs all the "facts" to make a decision. Your gut does not. Your gut instinct is always correct... it is your very best guide in the world.

We actively try to paint ourselves into corners at the end of episodes – at the end of seasons, at the end of scenes sometimes – and then we try to extricate ourselves from those corners.

Vince Gilligan, on the writing process of Breaking Bad

I have found the only reliable gauge, over the years ... the only reliable gauge is: The winners take very little time to feel sorry for themselves. And they move on... But the whiners - the feel-sorry, oh-poor-me, look-what-they-did-to-me, the victims - never make it.

One must be pitiless about this matter of “mood.” In a sense, the writing will create the mood. If art is, as I believe it to be, a genuinely transcendental function—a means by which we rise out of limited, parochial states of mind—then it should not matter very much what states of mind or emotion we are in. Generally I've found this to be true: I have forced myself to begin writing when I've been utterly exhausted, when I've felt my soul as thin as a playing card, when nothing has seemed worth enduring for another five minutes . . . and somehow the activity of writing changes everything. Or appears to do so. Joyce said of the underlying structure of Ulysses—the Odyssean parallel and parody—that he really didn't care whether it was plausible so long as it served as a bridge to get his “soldiers” across. Once they were across, what does it matter if the bridge collapses? One might say the same thing about the use of one's self as a means for the writing to get written. Once the soldiers are across the stream . . .

Players who practice hard when no one is paying attention generally play well when everyone is watching.

What Are You “Weighting” For?—Follow Your Heart Here’s a bit of practical (or impractical, depending on the situation) advice. Whatever you really want to do but are afraid to do—DO IT. Take the chance—follow your heart. It’s essential to listen to the messages from your heart. These messages are your soul’s desire. They communicate to you what you are meant to be doing at any given time in your life. If you don’t follow these messages, you will inevitably be straying from your life’s path. If you don’t listen to the messages from your heart, the feeling of longing and frustration is never going to go away; it will only get worse. Negativity constricts the flow of grace into your life, causing pain and emotional starvation. ... If you have something that you’d like to do, long to do, yearn to do but are afraid to do—take the chance. DON’T WEIGHT! FOLLOW YOUR HEART! Oftentimes, the situations and people in our life that are causing the most stress and pain are there to remind us that we are not following our heart. This can come in the form of an angry boss at a job we hate or an abusive partner in a relationship that is not working. If you are afraid of the changes that will happen in your life as a result of following your heart, that’s natural. Just surrender to the changes, letting them happen. Don’t resist them, don’t tense up; just relax and allow them to happen. You are following your heart, which means you are finally having the experiences your soul desires. This also means you are getting back on the right path and living your life’s purpose. The universe is ready to reward you. There will be a transition stage as you move from where you are not supposed to be in life to where you are supposed to be. It’s awkward, but you can’t avoid this stage. Just like after surgery, there’s a period of time when your body is healing and you may feel some discomfort. But surgery can save your life and so can following your heart. Anytime you experience any transitional discomfort, just relax and say these words to yourself: “This is my heart’s desire, and I allow these changes to take place in my life.” The changes that took place in my life when my body was transforming itself were substantial to say the least. Allowing those changes to take place was the single greatest thing I have ever done. The rewards have been beyond my wildest expectations.
