“Failure is almost more valuable than success, especially if you leverage it correctly. You can learn so much and you can collapse timelines when you apply and really look at your failures honestly...”
“Flexibility without structure is chaos.”
“I’ve learned now that if you really believe in something, it’s your responsibility to create the backward bridge to where people are and meet people where they’re at to help them cross the threshold to your new idea, your new perspective, your new way of thinking and seeing things.”
“If you are early, just pace yourself and remember you’re the bridge.”
“Patience and enthusiasm were two things that I really needed. I learned over and over again that I need to wait. I can’t get everything done as quickly as I want to get it done. I can’t zoom through life. I can’t zoom through my experiences and just wait and hope that they’ll be over soon. I need to sit in it. Sometimes it’s terrible to sit in it, but that’s what it requires.”
“Life is too important to be taken seriously.”
“Sometimes being radically generous means taking the time to teach someone why what they did was not a cool thing and creating a boundary and clarifying that boundary for them.”
“Picking my outfits or my costumes, picking my perfume, picking each character that I wanted to play every quarter has helped me more than anything do the things that I want to do and be the person I want to be.”
