“Because we visionaries exist in the liminal space of possibilities. In the endless realm of visions. In the world where we refuse to settle for the sure thing in favor of holding space for the real thing.”
“Anything can be a success or a failure depending on the metrics we’re using. So the question is—what actually matters to us?”
“As an artist, as a visionary, we’re not talking about a thing you create and control. We’re talking about a relationship, something you co-create with.”
“Showing up is vulnerable. It’s a deep surrender. It’s kind of saying, ‘I have no fucking idea what’s going to happen, and I might be totally wasting my time, but I have a vision that feels real to me, and I’m showing up for it.'”
“We have this illusion to all of life is fixed. Like our home is standing in place, our relationship is static, and even our own sense of self is well-formed. But the truth is the only things that are truly fixed are dead. Everything that’s alive is moving.”
“The thing no one tells you about being a visionary, about having access to so many ideas and visions and opportunities, is that you will be grieving a lot. Even if you don’t realize it. Because you’re inevitably saying no all the time. You’re inevitably struggling or failing sometimes. You’re inevitably letting go of old visions.”
