"They relish the time to to take a shit in the bathroom and look at their phone." / "You have to take a path that's dangerous and most people want to take the safe path. The safe path leaves you stuck in quiet desperation almost every time. It's Hell. It's Hell."
"The way you can change is you have to put aside enough money to give yourself a window, and then you have to have a plan and you have to spend all your waking hours outside of whatever shit job you do, planning your escape. And you have to come to the realization, very clearly, that you fucked up, you got yourself stuck. / "Whatever time that you have, you have to attack like you're trying to save the world, you're trying to save your life, you don't wanna drown."
"Failure teaches you things you don't learn from success." / "Failure gives you an opportunity for self examination and also gives you a feeling that is very uncomfortable. And that very uncomfortable feeling helps you grow." / "When I've had bad podcasts, my podcast has always gotten better afterwards. When I've had bad stand-up sets, I've always gotten better after that, because those bad sets motivate you, they give you a perspective, like "Hey, here's some clear examples of where you fucked up." / "Don't look at these failures as proof that you suck. Look at them as opportunities for growth. Look at them as opportunities to be motivated to do better." / "Don't be scared of failure. I think failure is awesome for you."
"Live your life like you're the hero in your movie." / "Pretend right now that... you're in the part of the movie that starts and it shows you as a fucking loser... decide not to be a loser anymore."
"If I only worked out when I felt good, I'd be a fat fuck because there's a lot of days when I don't want to do it."
Whatever you may be going through, I hope you get through it. Stay strong! 🤘🙏
