I HATE "social butterflies": self-centered narcissists. They have NO love of anything. In reality, they don't even love themselves. They keep painting the surface while rotting from the inside.
"Enough talking about me. I want to hear from u. What do u think of me?"
Money isn't enough of a motivator. I still need to look @ myself in the mirror & @ God on the final day
"The Creative Act" by Rick Rubin is a profound exploration of nurturing creativity.
Preparing yourself for inspiration by gathering ideas and staying open to diverse influences is indeed essential. Planned serendipity aligns perfectly with this concept—it requires effort and an open mind.
Embracing chance as a partner in creativity can lead to unexpected and rewarding discoveries. Let's welcome the muse and make chance our ally!
Loved this: "We need acceptance (but not resignation)"
Hope you can let me use it.
To reciprocate I share a line from my most recent article:
"Outsource or delegate, but don't abdicate."
Full article for context: Help Clients Trust Themselves.

I'm happy you loved it.
I'd love to see it quoted, maybe with my name below it, as if I was Albert Einstein or James Clear 😉
Will quote it like that and let you know when I do 👍

Yes, it was a stretch. The article explained in more detail what kind of social butterfly I was recommending.
