Quotes
Do you have quotes in your head that have helped pave the way to be who you are? How many do you have and who put them there? I have a few that I remember my Dad telling me when I was little. I couldn’t have been more then 9 or 10 but I distinctly remember him telling me “what ever you decide to do in life, make sure that you enjoy it. There’s nothing worse then getting up to go to a job that you hate“. That has always been in the back of my head and has helped me push myself towards a career that I’m passionate about.
Another one that my Dad put in my head was “don’t let people walk all over you“. I’ve had a harder time with this one as I don’t like confrontation and so will sometimes let others win to avoid arguments. I try, but I’m not always the alpha male that I’d like to be. Some personal growth is still required in that area.
Finally, one of my animation teachers said “don”t draw for the money, draw because you love it“. I’ve kept that one in my head too. It’s fascinating how the things we read or hear can strike a cord with us. It might not affect us for years, but when they do, things can all of a sudden make sense.
