Patrick Rothfuss: "The day we fret about the future is the day we leave our childhood behind."

Do stuff. Be clenched, curious. Not waiting for inspiration's shove or society's kiss on your forehead. Pay attention. It's all about paying attention. attention is vitality. It connects you with others. It makes you eager. stay eager.

The past is your lesson. The present is your gift. The future is your motivation.

Not everyone will understand your journey. Just be yourself and carry on.
