“Every athlete invariably yearns for the easy victory. But what is to be gleaned from such a fortuitous event? Not much. It's great for insatiable cravings of the ego. But it's an utter failure as a learning experience. Conversely, when things go horribly awry you are tested. Because obstacles force you to make decisions. And it's those decisions that reveal character.”

“Every great artist will tell you their best song, painting, performance, movie, or book is somehow flawed. It could have been better. They just decided it was time to stop working on it. The moment has arrived to finally let it go. Because holding out for perfection deprives the world its opportunity to enjoy it. And because it too creates paralysis—an immovable roadblock to future expression, and thus growth.”
