I have not gotten a hand onto this book. The discussion will be driven by the readers. Click the discussion tab above and start with your questions. I have posted quotes to note for you below. Theses are for fun and might remind you a great piece that you read.

"If you are deliberately trying to create a future that feels safe, you will willfully ignore the future that is likely."

"Discomfort brings engagement and change. Discomfort means you're doing something that others were unlikely to do, because they're hiding out in the comfortable zone. When your uncomfortable actions lead to success, the organization rewards you and brings you back for more."

"The tragedy is that society (your school, your boss, your government, your family) keeps drumming the genius part out. The problem is that our culture has engaged in a Faustian bargain, in which we trade our genius and artistry for apparent stability."

"When you set down the path to create art, whatever sort of art it is, understand that the path is neither short not easy. That means you must determine if the route is worth the effort. If it's not, dream bigger."

"Not only must you be an artist, must you be generous, and must you be able to see where you can help but you must also be aware. Aware of where your skills are welcomed."
