“It's not necessarily about what career you pick. It's about how you do what you do.”

“Positive thinking is how you think about a problem. Enthusiasm is how you feel about a problem. The two together determine what you do about the problem.”

“It's the movies that have been running things in America ever since they were invented. They show you what to do, how to do it, when to do it, how to feel about it, and how to look how you feel about it.”

“So it's not about what you do. It can't be, can it? It has to be about how you are, how you love, how you treat yourself and those around you, and that's where I get eaten up.”

“You can either look at your career as the things you're going to leave behind, and they have to be executed flawlessly and you have to know exactly what it is that you're doing. Or you can be realistic about the fact that you're going to learn as you practice what you do.”

“What are you going to do for a career?”

“It's not about being the strongest and the biggest. It's really about what are you going to do with your strength, and what are you going to do with the power that you have.”

“You wouldn't worry so much about what others think of you if you realized how seldom they do.”

“You shall not covet thy neighbor's wife? Well, how about if she goddamn covets me? What do you think about that?”

“If there is no joy, ease, or lightness in what you are doing, it does not necessarily mean that you need to change what you are doing. It may be sufficient to change the how. “How” is always more important than “what.” See if you can give much more attention to the doing than to the result that you want to achieve through it.”
