“What would you do if you could not fail?”

“Failure has a function.”

“If you treat your work like your baby, it will be harder to make cuts as needed and to let it go. Your creative work is not your baby, if anything you are it’s baby!”

“Create what you want to create and let it be stupendously imperfect because it is exceedingly likely that no one will even notice and that is AWESOME!”

“Other people’s judgements of you are none of your business.”

“Other’s reviews of my work have nothing to do with me.”

“I am not in charge of other people’s reactions.”

“You don’t need anyone’s permission to live a creative life.”
