1. Connectint the dots
You can't connect the dots lokking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards.
so you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.
You have to trust in something, your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever.
Believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart.
Even when it leads you off the well worn path, and that will make all the difference.
2. Love and loss
I had been rejected, but I was still in love. I still loved what I did.
And so I decided to start over.
The heaviness of being successful as replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything.
It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.
It was awful tasting medicien, but I guess the patien needed it.
Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith.
3. Death
Remembering that we'll be all dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life.
To avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.
Death was a useful but purely intellectual concept.
And yet death is the destination we all share, no one has ever escaped it.
And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of life, it's life's change agent.
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.
