People don’t fear change. They fear loss. The loss of comfort. The loss of certainty. The loss of who they thought they were.

Retreating shows not weakness but strength. It is something you must do every now and then, to find yourself and detach yourself from infecting influences.

Your best performances will come when you are working in a way that is a full expression of you. The work becomes a natural display of your personality. This is when you not only get better results, but also love the activity — because in doing the craft, you feel alive.

Your mind will follow whatever you feed it. Want better thoughts? Consume better things.

On This Day in Metal October 9th, 1990 Slayer released the GREAT album “Seasons In The Abyss”! A crushing masterpiece packed with thrash metal classics like “War Ensemble,” “Dead Skin Mask” and the legendary title track. What’s your favourite song from this iconic album? #ThisDayInMetal #Slayer #SeasonsInTheAbyss #ThrashMetal

"Follow your heart" is a marketing slogan, not life advice. Your heart wants tacos at midnight and drunk texts your ex. Try following your mind for once.

Always stick to what makes you weird, odd, strange, different. That’s your source of power.

Displaying anger and emotion are signs of weakness; you cannot control yourself, so how can you control anything?

What matters is not education or money, but your persistence and the intensity of your desire to learn; that failures, mistakes, and conflicts are often the best education of all; and how true creativity and mastery emerge from all this.

Never assume that the person you are dealing with is weaker or less important than you are. If you want to turn people down, it is best to do so politely and respectfully, even if you feel their request is impudent or their offer ridiculous.
