I used to do whatever I felt like doing - it didn't have to do with whether it was important for the development of nuclear physics, but whether it was interesting and amusing for me to play with.

Richard Feynman, Spinning Plates and Serious Play — Think Jar Collective
When I give of myself, when I genuinely care about others, I generate a feeling of connection, a feeling that is closely related to love. This is a feeling we long for.

I’m not sure why, but this always makes me feel better.
I am an artist first and foremost. No matter how I spend my time, no matter how i make money, no matter what responsibilities or identities I take on .. I am an artist because I have the mind and soul of an artist. I am a creative force of nature, I am an innovator, I am brave and smart and loving and experimental in my approach to life. I was put...

This video changed my life. I’d spent my 20’s and 30’s being confused and burned out, and the ideas in here made it all clear to me, in an instant, why. There is life as an artist before this video, and life as an artist after. Thank you Van and Tom.
