My new goal in life is to be last. There is surprisingly little competition. I have been successful several times already.

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: - It’s ‘voilà,’ not ‘wallah!’ - It’s ‘a lot,’ not ‘alot.’ - It’s ‘further ado,’ not ‘farther adieu.’ - It’s ‘flesh out,’ not ‘flush out.’ - It’s ‘sneak peek,’ not ‘sneak peak.’ No worries if not!!!

I believe you should always re-read your favorite books at different stages of your life. The plot never changes but your perspective does.

I think the Dan Kennedy quote was: "It isn't the thing. It is never the thing. You have to sell yourself and the experience of working with you. Anything else is a commodity. People are interested in other people. Be interested and people will find you interesting."

The gap between where you are and where you want to be isn’t filled with motivation. It’s filled with repetition. Showing up on the days you don’t feel like it. Doing the unsexy work no one sees. Staying consistent when results are invisible. Motivation gets you started and

Hint for those people trying to make new friends or find their partner - listen. Really listen without trying to fix, change or debate. You should be able to repeat what your partner just said, if not you are most likely not listening.

The sensationalist Japan content is getting out of hand. A wall with some graffiti on in Shibuya doesn't mean Japan is at an end😂 There was graffiti in Shibuya ten years ago. There's graffiti in Shibuya today. Look for the bad things and you'll find them. Look for the good

I switched careers at 24 and thought it was too late. I started my first business at 30 and thought it was too late. I began posting on social media at 40 and thought it was too late. The truth? Everyone has their unique timing and it's never too late to change your life.

One of the joys of being an improv director and teacher is watching my students grow and put their skills to work. So proud of Pan performer Simona! Check out the trailer for their upcoming short film here: https://t.co/q9ruQKNYo6

プロ意識 (puro ishiki) means “professional mindset” or “professionalism.” This Japanese term describes commitment to excellence in one’s work. Example: “プロ意識(ぷろいしき)を持って(もって)働く(はたらく)” (Work with professionalism). #Japanese #Term

Effective practice is not inherently enjoyable. It is enjoyable in the sense that improving performance is enjoyable.

Wanting something and wanting to want it are two different things. It is okay to have dreams you don't pursue. They are fun to think about and imagine.

二度あることは三度ある (nido aru koto wa sando aru) means “what happens twice will happen a third time.” This Japanese proverb warns that patterns tend to repeat themselves. #Japanese #Proverb
