I think I've realized that when you are aiming to create a real body of work, you are as much defined by the things you don't do as by the things you do.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I don't want to say work is who I am, but some people feel more centered and more whole when they're producing and creating.
I realized a career is built as much on what you don't do as what you do do.
In essence, I set myself the objective of doing what I feel is right without having any ambition.
Work is about more than making a living, as vital as that is. It's fundamental to human dignity, to our sense of self-worth as useful, independent, free people.
All I ever intended was to make a living at what I do. Everything I've achieved since then is above and beyond.
It is in my nature to give the work I have all the discipline and due diligence that I am capable of.
If you are not making the progress that you would like to make and are capable of making, it is simply because your goals are not clearly defined.
My body of work means nothing to me.
I've got a clear line between work and real life.
I see myself as someone who makes things. Definitions have never done anything but constrain.
