again fact far life people point sort stages vehicle
The fact is that at different stages of your life, and under the influence of different inspirations, you write different things. The point is not necessarily to find your voice, which grinds out the same sort of thing again and again, but to find a vehicle for people who are far more important than the author: the characters.
again building dying fascinated future imagine instead investing people product profits realize reinvest remarkable time unlikely
If a product's future is unlikely to be remarkable - if you can't imagine a future in which people are once again fascinated by your product - it's time to realize that the game has changed. Instead of investing in a dying product, take profits and reinvest them in building something new.
needs propensity mesmerized
Of course, the greater one's need, the greater one's propensity to be mesmerized.
hate book long
But I too hate long books: the better, the worse. If they're bad they merely make me pant with the effort of holding them up for a few minutes. But if they're good, I turn into a social moron for days, refusing to go out of my room, scowling and growling at interruptions, ignoring weddings and funerals, and making enemies out of friends. I still bear the scars of Middlemarch.
mean laughing people
I have become a giant fan of the testing process, especially with a comedy. I mean, they tell you what's funny. It's almost tailor-made for people who shoot the way we shoot, trying a million different options and versions of things. Because the audience doesn't laugh at a joke, we put in another joke. If they don't laugh at the next joke, we put in another joke. You just keep doing them and you can get the movie to the point where every joke is funny, if you have enough options in the can.

I'm not a software developer and I have reason to believe that neither is your honor.
art numbers maps
The minute there's a map, there is no art. Paint by numbers is not art. Paint by numbers is a mechanical activity.
thinking giving found
I've found that giving gifts is transformative. It makes me better. It clarifies my thinking and allows me to do better work.
mean perfection promise
Quality is not an absolute measure. It doesn't mean 'deluxeness' or 'perfection'. It means keeping the promise the customer wants you to make.
people path easy
Most people are searching for a path to success that is both easy and certain. Most paths are neither.
real attention estates
Attention is a bit like real estate, in that they're not making any more of it. Unlike real estate, though, it keeps going up in value.
You don't want to be nasty for the sake of being nasty.
animal morality claims
religion notoriously claims that they invented morality, they didn't. Morality exists in animals, ya know.
