“Christmas always sucked when I was a kid because I believed in Santa Claus. Unfortunately, so did my parents. So I never got anything.”

Your ability to communicate effectively and build strong connections with others is a key factor in your success.

Your presence matters. Be fully present in every moment and make it count.

If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else.

You need chaos in your soul to give birth to a dancing star.

Everything that can be counted does not necessarily count; everything that counts cannot necessarily be counted.

My ideas usually come not at my desk writing, but in the midst of living.
