“ Start every day as a producer, not a consumer.— aceex @ Reddit
[When you] start with what you really want to do, distractions [will] start to feel like a waste of time. You check Facebook just to make sure you're not missing anything important directed at you, but scrolling down and reading random stuff in your feed feels like a complete waste of time compared to what you're really doing today. ”

“ We are making a thing. ... The process of making something is pretty much always the same. There are moments you find yourself suddenly able to express something you’ve been trying to convey for a very long time. There are moments when you are pretty sure that you are a fake. In moments of clarity, I remind myself that these are the well known features of the landscape of realizing a large project. The wrestling match between belief and disbelief is the actual matter of making things. If I am not coming up against these complexities, chances are I am not facing a big enough challenge. ”— Khaela Maricich (The Blow)

“ The universe is probably littered with the one-planet graves of cultures which made the sensible economic decision that there's no good reason to go into space - each discovered, studied, and remembered by the ones who made the irrational decision. ”— Randall Munroe

“ My job, on any given day, is doing something which makes me happy – for a complex definition of “happy”, which includes things not strictly related to me, such as “Is the world better for this having been done?” and “Are the people who matter to me well taken care of if I do this?” ”— Kalzumeus Software: How Running A Business Changes The Way You Think

“ Every time we sit down to write, draw, design, paint, dance, we do so because we believe there will be a tomorrow. Every movement and each creation says, “The world is not done yet.” To make is to be optimistic. We get to make tomorrow for ourselves and one another. We create to ease pain, to increase pleasure, and to get happy, believing that the goodness can be sustained. If we can do this for ourselves, we are lucky. When we are able to do so for others, we are tending towards glory. ”— Frank Chimero

“ [What] usually happens when you probe concepts is one of the most wondrous experiences I know of, exhilarating and unnerving at the same time, dizzying. I call it sense of could: taking an entrenched concept and realizing it is not necessarily so, discovering your singularity is just an instance of something subtler, deeper, finding out your rose is one among thousands, seeing that what you thought fixed is just another degree of motion. ”— elzr: Certainty
