“It all changed when I realized I'm not the only one on the planet who's scared. Everyone else is, too. I started asking people, Are you scared, too? You bet your sweet life I am. Aha, so that's the way it is for you, too. We were all in the same boat. That's probably what is so effective at our workshops. When I ask, Who else feels like this? the whole room of hands goes up. People realize they are not the only one who feels that way.” PeopleWayFeelsWholeHandsAsksFearRealizingRoomsChangedPlanetsSweetAskingScaredI RealizedBoatWorkshopsSweet Life Author:Stan Dale
“The problem of living in this modern world is the problem of finding room in it. The crowd principle is so universally at work through modern life that the geography of the world had been changed to conform to it. We live in crowds. We get our living in crowds.

“Well, I think there was a time when I first started that there was such a thing called 'a woman's film' and there were certain scripts that women would make. But I think that's changed a lot now.

“I would always drink purple drink - syrup. I would just be in a room, screwing and chopping up music. It was like an alter ego - I would turn into another person when I was on a substance. My music would get darker and weirder, and it inspired a lot of people. But I've changed my life and stopped smoking. I like to turn up and have fun when I get the chance, but I don't overdo it now.” PeoplePersonsTurnsFunChanceRoomsChangedDrinkEgoInspiredSubstanceHaving FunSmokingPurpleChanged My LifeChoppingSyrupAlter EgoI've Changed Author:SpaceGhostPurrp
