“You’ll never get that freedom back again once people start paying you attention, and especially not once they start paying you money.”

“Do just once what others say you can't do, and you will never pay attention to their limitations again.”

“Real Revolution Starts At Learning, If You're Not Angry, Then You Are Not Paying Attention.”

“You weren't thinking and you weren't paying attention either. People who don't pay attention often get stuck in the Doldrums.”

“There is a kind of fallout that happens when you leave college. The classroom is a wonderful, if artificial, place: Your professor gets paid to pay attention to your ideas, and your classmates are paying to pay attention to your ideas. Never again in your life will you have such a captive audience.”

“If your skin is crawling, pay attention. If something doesn’t feel right, pay attention. If the hairs on the back of your neck prickle, if your gut clenches up, if a wave of wrongness washes over you, if your heart starts beating faster, pay, pay, pay attention. Do not second-guess yourself or rationalize anything that impedes your safety. Our instincts are the animal inside of our humanness, warning us of danger.”
