“One of the things I love about the theater is that no one can tell you to stop. Once you're onstage, it's three hours, and whether you're completely off or you're just horrendous, you've got to find a way to leave an impression. There's not that terrible thing that you get when you're making a movie, where you get in your car at the end of the day knowing that something you're not proud of was immortalized on film, and you can't fix it because they won't reshoot it.” WayEndsFilmThreeHoursKnowingCarProudTerribleTheaterImpressionThe End Of The DayTerrible ThingsThings I Love Author:Carey Mulligan

“True listening is never self-effacement. We bring the whole self to the process, rather than denying self. When we truly listen, we aren't just waiting for someone else to decide something so we can get on with things, or so we don't have to decide for ourselves. We aren't giving away our own powers to be seen and heard. When we listen, first we listen to the parts of ourselves that are curious, in avoidance, afraid, angry, or proud. Then we can take a breath and sink, allowing those parts some space alongside the spaciousness of not knowing.” GivingFirstsSelfWholeWaitingProcessSpaceKnowingHeardListeningProudBreathsAngryCuriousAllowingNot KnowingAvoidanceSpaciousnessDenying Self Book:Make Magic of Your Life: Passion, Purpose, and the Power of Desire Source: Make Magic of Your Life: Passion, Purpose, and the Power of Desire
