The canter is a cure for every evil.

The truth is -- we are always highly motivated when something means a great deal to us. If I fell into a deep lake and I didn't know how to swim, I would become highly motivated in an instant. Climbing from the lake would mean more to me than anything else in the world. My effort would be no less than astounding and I would suddenly become one of the most excited and enthusiastic persons imaginable.

it is the general rule of the moral universe that those men prosper who do their work with all their hearts, while those are almost certain to fail who go to their labour leaving half their hearts behind them.

All professions have some element of theater to them.

Don't differentiate between "This is a job" and "This is what I'm doing for fun." It's all simultaneous.

I always like to be in the presence of people who are good at and love their jobs, Irrespective of their jobs.
