The Pursuit of Possible Impossibilities
Don’t tell me about your problems, tell me about the ideas that you generated as a result of you discovering that a problem existed… Don’t give me the 100 reason of why a thing won’t work, give me the one risky move you plan to make to be the one who does the impossible… Don’t tell me that you are afraid, God did not give you the spirit of fear…
“If we are all really honest with ourselves, the thing that we struggle with the most, for a great deal of our adult lives, is this… Finding a way to blur the line between work and play.”

Three enemies to remarkable art... "Just Get it...
Regardless of what you may think… remarkable art does not happen over night. Remarkable art is usually the product of long hours of serious thinking, play, divine intervention, soul searching and in some cases, a spiritual experience that manifest itself as “art”. Okay, yes… I may have just gone over the top a bit, BUT I think you get my point. Creating (creation)...
The Importance of Play and Creativity...
It’s been quite a while since I have sat down and written a blog. Over the past few months, it’s been “fast and furious” at Kind Intelligence, and my ability to just sit down, reflect, and focus on sharing my ideas has been tough… REALLY tough, and that brings me to the topic of this “ice-breaking” post… The Importance of Play and Creativity ...

The Balance of Wins and Losses
Life, is a perfect balance of both wins and losses. I have never met a successful person who has NOT endured a loss in their life. Rather it be financial or emotional loss, loss was and is, and WILL be endured. Period. What’s incredible however; is the fact that in the same breath, and scope, there is the win. I have never met a successful person who has not endured wins in their life....

ricky gervais... gimmie control.
Q. You insist on complete creative control, right? Yes, I’m a complete fascist—and you should be in art. I don’t think I’m the best producer or director or actor in the world, but I know how I want it done. I don’t try to please anyone except myself. If people like what I do, fantastic. If they don’t, that’s good, too. If you start trying to water it down or second-guess,...
