“I think the key to success is vision that adjusts on the way, but doesn’t at all falter. It’s about not compromising and following your gut to a certain degree, based on knowledge, instinct, etc. And not listening to the naysayers.... You develop strength through adversity. You have to keep moving towards your goal through huge obstacles.” ThinkingWayMovingCertainGoalVisionHugeKeysListeningDegreesAdversityInstinctFollowingObstaclesCompromiseGutsEtcKey To SuccessKeep MovingStrength Through AdversityNaysayers Author:Millard Drexler
“It's easy to keep score at a football game because it's just how many times you get the ball over the goal. But, when you ask an audience to tell us how many times the invisible ball got over the invisible goal, and they go, "Well, it was 46," they're just making it up. So, if you're listening to that, as though you're actually listening to the score of a football game, you're misleading yourself.” IfsWellsAsksGamesEasyGoalAudienceFootballListeningBallsInvisibleScoreMisleadFootball Game Author:Gus Van Sant
“The goal is that people will find something of themselves in it. But you don't need to know what a hexachord is! You don't need to know what serialism is. You don't need to know anything technical. It's more about the state of mind of being open and listening to what's really going on. And I think that the more open you can be, the better. So maybe it's not good to have expectations.” PeopleThinkingKnowsNeedsMindStatesGoalListeningExpectationsState Of Mind Author:Missy Mazzoli

“Some cultures don't have a separate word for music and dance. To my knowledge, this notion of listening to music without dancing is a Western creation. I can't think of any artist that I love that doesn't inspire movement in some form or another. I guess Tangerine Dream or early Vangelis or something like that, you're not really going to dance. But on the whole, I feel like dancing and music are so naturally intertwined. I feel like subconsciously, that's the goal whenever I'm working on music. It's kind of the defining thing: Does it got some funk to it, basically?” ThinkingKindDreamArtistCultureGoalCreationInspireListeningDancingWesternListening To MusicFunk Author:RJD2
