If everyone had the luxury to pursue a life of exactly what they love, we would all be ranked as visionary and brilliant. … If you got to spend every day of your life doing what you love, you can’t help but be the best in the world at that. And you get to smile every day for doing so. And you’ll be working at it almost to the exclusion of personal hygiene, and your friends are knocking on your door, saying, “Don’t you need a vacation?!,” and you don’t even know what the word “vacation” means because what you’re doing is what you want to do and a vacation from that is anything but a vacation — that’s the state of mind of somebody who’s doing what others might call visionary and brilliant.

Skill follows the rules, talent breaks the rules, mastery shatters the rules, but genius makes its own rules.

I would be dreadfully remiss not to think that God would painstakingly craft something an intimately ingenious and inexplicably intricate as my life, and that by virtue of such sheer brilliance I should not examine it with the greatest precision and unleash it with the fullest abandon.

The definition of brilliance is redoing failures different each time and expecting successful results.

Works from the soul transcend works from the mind.

Genius is talent set on fire.

Soul power supersedes mind power.

Your power and brilliance is the the most awesome force life could muster.

Geniuses’ steps take you higher than talent’s leaps.
