If you are crazy and sometimes feel bad. Don’t. Actually, you should cherish and nurture it.

The definition of crazy is: In a state of mind that prevents normal perception.

Good crazy is a special bug in the mental software. It’s when risk reward calculations don’t account for conformity.

Like when a young Steve Jobs looked up the biggest mogul in the computer industry in the phone book. He called Bill Hewlett and asked Bill to send him spare parts. For free!

Or when Ingvar Kamprad refused to deal with Swedish suppliers. Instead he went to Poland and came in bad standing with the entire Swedish industry. He didn’t care. His startup was Ikea.

Or when Henry Ford didn’t care about the power of the automobile industry. Henry Ford broke their patents and challenged the biggest name in the industry to race him.

Great people don’t accomplish great things by thinking average. Great things are accomplished by believing in yourself first, believing that you’re the one who’s meant to make this thing happen.

If you look around, and listen very closely to what extreme achievers say, then you’ll see the small clues that demonstrate their belief system.

You see signs of this in EVERYONE who’s extremely successful. Even if they don’t say it in that way, they will say things like, “I literally feel like I’m creating the world around me.”

you feel like there’s nothing you can’t accomplish. There’s an inner story you tell yourself. And that story is that you’re born to win. You’re born to make things happen.

You develop a belief system that knows you’re brilliant, different, and maybe even destined to change the world. This special sense of destiny evolves into a delusional state of mind.

Extreme Achievers don’t just feel like they’re born to win, they make it so it’s inevitable that they will.

The only difference between successful delusion and crazy people delusion is that successful people are practical about their delusions. Crazy people are delusional about what they think will happen and then they stop their.

It’s not enough to just think you’re going to accomplish something, you have to get extremely practical about how you’re going to accomplish it.

You should have no desire to be average. You should have no desire to think and act like everyone else if you want to accomplish great things.

No matter how many people make fun of your insane level of belief, you realize that they’re just making fun of it because they don’t have that belief in themselves.

Successful people are delusional because that’s what makes them great.

Crazy people make great bets. A good bet is one where you can win more than you can lose.

They create new boxes for normal people to think inside of. it is as “crazy” and mind blowing as making something that already exist better. By thinking differently, crazy people like kids use the power of their imagination to power their way to success.

They are too foolish to be scared. When crazy people set goals for themselves, they aren’t concerned with the “what if” possibility of failure.

They strive for authenticity. Crazy people develop their own sense of style and paint the portrait of life exactly the way they see it. This ability to be original has seen many crazies achieve success by developing life skills that normal people would call a bad habit or simply absurd.

They have high energy. Crazies however have all the time, passion and energy in the world. They dedicate themselves to a craft and work tirelessly to develop their skills. This intent focus and energy definitely gives them an advantage for success.

They dare to break the rules. Crazies understand that while rules are important, they can be limiting. It is this ability to question authority without disrespect that makes the crazies more likely to be successful.

They invent out of necessity. Their unusual minds help them view the world from a different perspective than normal people.Crazies embody the old adage, “necessity is the mother of all inventions.

They recognize other crazies. The idea of being able to brainstorm with others who think as differently as you do gives you a greater chance of success. Crazy’s challenge one another’s beliefs.

They are always curious. Crazies have the minds of kids, constantly asking why. Their minds are insatiable and they are not afraid to follow the rabbit hole no matter how deep down it goes.

They are like a dog with a bone. Crazy people become obsessed with certain problems and how to solve them. They become so engrossed that no matter how impossible a task supposedly is, they will always find a way.

They don’t label. By not labelling others, crazies are able to surround themselves with an extremely diverse group of talent and unlock the human potential and ability for action.

They challenge the word “no”. They constantly challenge every single person that dares to tell them no.

They listen intently and take notes. Talking too much is what is killing your success. Crazy successful people listen to what others have to say, and then they filter out what is not relevant to their mission.

They take time to chill out. Every successful person I have met spends time scheduling travel to escape the patterns and routines they have become so accustomed to.

They inspire people. The final thing these crazy, insane, passionate, successful people do differently is inspire people. A conversation with them is uplifting and it changes the way you think. They create a feeling inside of you that feels good and makes you want to achieve some significant goal in your own life.

I love just how beautiful Vancouver is. I mean, everywhere you look it's just mountains and ocean.

I'll always be a foreigner.

I love watching old movies, reading and having some good meals. I have a very close group of friends and family. I try to spend time with the ones that I love and work as hard as possible.

I'm a big fan of cel animation, I'm a big fan of computer animation, and, most of all, I'm a big fan of stop-motion animation.

For only by nurturing the minds and strengthening the values of our children can we give them an opportunity to be full, productive citizens, to reach their God-given potential, and to have good jobs right here in Oklahoma.

If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere.

I've made humanitarian causes and my children much more my priority than the Hollywood scene, being liked and getting movie parts.

If you could have imagined that someone is happy that Obama is president, it has to be Jimmy Carter because he is no longer the worst president in our history.

It can get really messy inside my head, and it's usually just because everybody can get really self-centered at some point. And so what usually keeps me from quitting is that my reasons for quitting are just lame. I wouldn't want anybody else to talk to myself the way that I talk to myself.

I wouldn't go into the studio if I didn't have a band who's ready, willing, and able.

I have tons of art books. I have them all over the place. They are in my car, in my bag, and in my studio. There are books around me all the time.

I'm such a perfectionist and I like to have everything just right, but at the same time I try to be as real and as genuine as I can be in my life and in my career.

I like breaking the rules.

It was an exceedingly odd thing to see an elephant in a spacesuit.

Testimony is the beginning of and a prerequisite to continuing conversion. Testimony is a point of departure; it is not an ultimate destination. Strong testimony is the foundation upon which conversion is established. Testimony alone is not and will not be enough to protect us in the latter-day storm of darkness and evil in which we are living.

What I like are films that take me seriously, that don't treat me as more stupid than I am.

Writing itself is a dream. There are days of self doubt and deadlines and wondering how you're going to pay the bills until you write that bestseller. But it's still the best job I've ever had. I've also been able to help a lot of people and even inspire a few and that feels great.
