My advice to teens is to try and do something that scares you every day because it's the only way you can test how far you can really go. Whether it's going out and auditioning for the play or trying out for the basketball team, you have to explore your boundaries and see where you really want to go and the only way you can do that is to break out of your shell.
The only way we protect ourselves, the only way a player gets what he wants is by holding out.

You see, life only turns out good or bad for only a little bit. And then it turns out some other way.
Inside the boundaries of the old paradigm there's no hope, there's no way out of the box of capitalism, monogamy, consumer fetishism, egoism, money worship, no way out. No way. No way out!
You can only gain the real intricacies of playing by playing. You can study the playbook all you want and you can ask as many questions, but until you're out there out of the field doing it, that's the only way is to mess it up, or do it right and cement and then learn from it.
Five Truths
about
Fear Truth

If we're going to get this country out of its current energy situation, we can't just conserve our way out; we can't just drill our way out; we can't bomb our way out. We're going to do it the old-fashioned American way, we're going to invent our way out, working together.
