Making sure you're rested is also part of the job.

Thankfully, there's a cure for youth and stupidity — time and experience.

— How are we supposed to give advice without dragging our baggage into it?
— Maybe our baggage informs our advice, gives us perspective, maybe even wisdom.
— Maybe you're confusing baggage with experience.
— What's the difference?

— We're celebrating? Today was a disaster, and we got lucky.
— You're right. But when you get lucky, you celebrate.

Don't let guilt make you second-guess yourself.

— Letting things get personal is a sure formula for screwing things up.
— Letting things get personal is how we how we make it matter.

I'm not desperate. I'm confident. Which should make you feel better.

Unfounded accusations can destroy people's lives.

Complications happen.

Everything works fine up until it doesn't.

Religious people aren't immune to hypocrisy.
