The choice to make good choices is the best choice you can choose. Fail to make that choice and on most choices you will lose.
~ Ryan Lilly
Life is a web of intersections and choices. Your 1st choice is to recognize an intersection. Your 2nd choice is to be grateful for it.
Get off the treadmill of consumption, replication, and mediocrity. Begin lifting the weights of creativity, originality, and success.
A professional headshot in front of a bookshelf says you're an intellectual. A professional headshot peeking though a bookshelf says you're probably under a restraining order.
One of my relatives invented the sensory deprivation tank. Appropriately, most of my family has never seen or heard of him.
When I first tried a sensory deprivation tank, people thought I had lost my mind. In fact, I had found it.
I've never written a quote I feel would be suitable for my gravestone. Wouldn't it be ironic if it were this one? Oh, and could you pull a few weeds while you're here?
The best cure for a stick up your butt is a dog to play fetch with.
Part of my soul goes into each quote I write. A book of my quotes can be yours for just $19.99.
Quotes are echos of voices transporting wisdom, humor, and love. Returning again to the human condition, fleeting once more as a dove.
A quote is a story, suspended in a sentence and treasured through time.
I get this buzz every time I'm quoted online. The ego high... yes... but also a Google Alert.
If all it takes to motivate you is a quote then this quote has nothing to say – except to go soar with the freakin’ eagles.
I'm considering writing a self-help book and giving people 20 cents to read it. This way, I can be sure they all get new paradigms.
Success = Wisdom + Courage + Discipline. KNOW what to do, be BRAVE enough to do it, and LEAD YOURSELF to doing it again and again.
Look yourself in the eyes in a mirror each day. You can ignore the small voice still inside you, but your reflection will always have something to say.
Progress across the time axis is passive. Progress up the results axis is passion.
The heart pointed to the brain and said with great disdain, “Those who live their lives in here live the lives most full of fear.
Those with calling also find wealth, so jump and start swimming towards your true self.
Those without passion are often passed and shunned.
Pass on it if you’re not passionate, for convictions create clear choices.
Rebels revel in rewriting reality's restrictions.
Not only should we encourage kids to daydream, but also to jump-in and build those dreams. Dreaming is largely lost among adults drowning in self-imposed realities.
Never underestimate the collective strength of your weakest connections.
A life spent at the edge of the pier is a life full of regret, a life full of fear.
Unwavering incremental change can create remarkable and monumental results.
Change occurs when excuses pivot to execution.
The irony of sensory deprivation tanks is that in order to think outside the box, you must first go inside one.
A degree helps to a degree, but your work is largely what you create it to be.
Business ideas are like those flying dragons in Avatar. First you have to find one, let it choose you, then be brave enough to ride it.
Creation pulls something from an abyss of nothing. Startups take the something & give it to those in the dark, at first, perhaps, for nothing.

Consuming the content and culture of creatives does not make one a creative. Creating makes a creative.
If you’re struggling to “think outside the box” remember the box is self-imposed. Who says it has to be a box? Why not a bowl of petunias?
Everyone breathing is broken. Keep breathing light into them until the stained glass collage takes your breath away.
Imagine our imaginations were limited only to the limitless. Still, it wouldn't matter without a motivation to move.
The best way to get over your fear of meeting new people is to imagine them naked. Unless you’re networking at a nudist camp, then you may have to get more creative.
I'm friends with a guy who is friends with a former Playboy model. So I guess you could say I'm 1 degree away from 212 degrees.
Make something people want and sell that, or be someone people need and sell you.
The focus of gap analysis should be getting to the other side. If you bend-over to analyze a gap too long, you'll probably fall into it.
