A Quote by Frank Dillane

I've had to wean myself away to make sure that any choices I make are grounded in myself rather than the seeking of approval. — © Frank Dillane
I've had to wean myself away to make sure that any choices I make are grounded in myself rather than the seeking of approval.
Don't seek approval. This may be the toughest suggestion for you to follow -- and the most important. Whether you'te a teenager seeking approval from your peers, a middle-aged parent seeking the approval of your kids, or a man or woman seeking the approval of a partner, it all amounts to the same thing. You're giving your personal power away every time you seek validation from someone else for who you are.
The reason why I do not know anything about myself, the reason why Siddhartha has remained alien and unknown to myself is due to one thing, to one single thing--I was afraid of myself, I was fleeing from myself. I was seeking Atman, I was seeking Brahman, I was determined to dismember myself and tear away its layers of husk in order to find in its unknown innermost recess the kernel at the heart of those layers, the Atman, life, the divine principle, the ultimate. But in so doing, I was losing myself.
If I went to UNC, I'm sure I would find a way to make myself better, make things harder, challenge myself. It's what the player puts into it.
Look, I don't have a Facebook page because I have little interest in hearing myself talk about myself any further than I already do in interviews or putting any more about myself online than there already is. But if I wasn't in this position, I'm sure I would use it every day.
My comfort zone musically, I wouldn't necessarily say I have one now. But, when I did have one, I can definitely identify that it was sampling. I had to identify it honestly as sampling because I started to become dependent on using samples in order to make a track rather than being dependent on myself to make the track because I maybe didn't trust myself enough then.
I make sure I always surround myself with good, down to earth, fun, real people, who always keep me grounded.
I've always carried the burdens of everyone I love and try to make sure everyone else is good rather than focus on myself.
There are cases when I can make myself better off by restricting my future choices and commit myself to a specific course of action.
I had to make some drastic choices to avoid losing myself.
I'm very grateful, first of all, for my friends and my family because they keep me grounded, and they make sure I'm taking care of myself and that I'm keeping my sanity about me.
The most common mistake Christians make in worship today is seeking an experience rather than seeking God
Atoms are weird stuff, behaving like active agents rather than inert substances. They make unpredictable choices between alternative possibilities according to the laws of quantum mechanics. It appears that mind, as manifested by the capacity to make choices, is to some extent inherent in every atom. The universe is also weird, with its laws of nature that make it hospitable to the growth of mind. I do not make any clear distinction between mind and God. God is what mind becomes when it passes beyond the scale of our comprehension.
I'd rather be by myself than be spending any time or energy on somebody that I didn't feel sure about.
Career-wise, there are so many things where you don't get what you think you want. I've had to make space for, 'Do I let that debilitate me and make me feel bad about myself? And make me feel like I need to change myself in some way?' Because I think changing myself is very different from growing and learning.
I must work harder to achieve my goal of not seeking approval from those whose approval I'm not even sure is important to me.
I believe feminism is grounded in supporting the choices of women even if we wouldn’t make certain choices for ourselves.
