“Follow your nature. The practice is really about uncovering your own pose; we have great respect for our teachers, but unless we can uncover our own pose in the moment, it's not practice - it's mimicry.

You want to be better at what you do.”

What they couldn’t do is give them the confidence to stick to those rules even when things are going bad.”
