Creative Work Is Not A Selfish Act

Put Your Ass Where Your Heart Wants To Be.

In Other Words, Any Act That Rejects Immediate Gratification In Favor Of Long-term Grown, Health, Or Integrity. Or, Expressed Another Way, Any Act That Derives From Our High Nature Instead Of Our Lower. Any Of These Will Elicit Resistance.

One Thing I've Found In Any Project Is Almost Universally About Three Quarters Of The Way Through - Or Maybe A Little Father, Maybe Seventh Eighths On The Way Through - Any Project Will Explode.

The Spartans Say That Any Army May Win While It Still Has Legs Under It; The Real Test Comes When All Strength Is Fled And The Men Must Produce Victory On Will Alone.

We Come Into This World With A Specific, Personal Destiny. We Have A Job To Do, A Calling To Enact, A Self To Become. We Are Who We Are From The Cradle, And We're Stuck With It.
