One of the best pieces of advice was from my Year Two teacher, on how to draw a bicycle: "Spend twice as much time _looking_ at it than drawing it".
I apply that to so many areas. More time listening than talking. More observing than doing. The outcome will always be better.

How I review a paper:
1. Print paper
2. Bring paper with me everywhere so I can feel its presence
3. Stare at paper longingly from across room; so close but so far
4. Pick up paper, read first line, put paper down
5. Receive email from editor
6. Read 2x in 3hr and submit review

Every time a bigot says something like "What's next, a disabled bisexual Snow White? Captain America as an indigenous furry? Transgender Hercules??" they are accidentally having the best idea of their life.

Was George Orwell in seinem angeblich so weitsichtigen Buch „1984“ nicht vorhergesehen hat, war die erste Single von Modern Talking, „You‘re my heart, you‘re my soul“.
„Tolle Leistung“, Herr Orwell.

Grateful for another day to grind for better tomorrows. I’m not where I want to be, but thankfully I’m not where I’ve come from.
