Start Before You’re Ready.

Resistance Really Takes The Shape, For Me, In Voices In My Head Telling Me Why I Can't Do Something Or Why I Should Put It Off For Another Day, Procrastinate For Another Day.

To Yield To Resistance Deforms Our Spirit. It Stunts Us And Makes Us Less Than We Are And Were Born To Be.

Don't Prepare. Begin. Our Enemy Is Not Lack Of Preparation. The Enemy Is Resistance, Our Chattering Brain Producing Excuses. Start Before You Are Ready.

The Most Important Thing About Art Is To Work. Nothing Else Matters Except Sitting Down Every Day And Trying. Why Is This Important? Because When We Sit Down Day After Day And Keep Grinding, Something Mysterious Starts To Happen. A Process Is Set In Motion By Which, Inevitably And Infallibly, Heaven Comes To Our Aid. Unseen Forces Enlist In Our Cause; Serendipity Reinforces Our Purpose.

No Industry Is Immune And No Occupation Is Safe. All Of Us Need To Begin To Think In Terms Of Our Own Inner Strengths, Our Resilience And Resourcefulness, Our Capacity To Adapt And To Rely Upon Ourselves And Our Families.
