Sam Hyde's important advice to creative people

Weariness.
Nothing is so insufferable to man as to be completely at rest, without passions, without business, without diversion, without study. He then feels his nothingness, his forlornness, his insufficiency, his dependence, his weakness, his emptiness. There will immediately arise from the depth of his heart weariness, gloom, sadness, fretfulness, vexation, despair.

If Sam could be this sincere for longer than 10 minutes he'd be an incredible professor.

[@humanharddrive1]

this was 30 minutes though

[@TJ-pr3rr]

A professor in the broken education system? He's doing just fine.

[@ELABrust]

I agree. Your standards need to be such that daily creative output is a possibility. Cheers folks

For a moment Sam talks Almost identical as Terrence Fletcher giving that speech to Andrew about how rewarding mediocrity ultimately creates more mediocrity and dilutes an art form, and his passion for jazz music saying; "There are no two words in the English language more harmful than 'good job'..."

I kind of disagree about perfectionism and tunnel vision. "Obsession is the wellspring of genius and madness".

[@fakeschopenhauers]

perfectionism doesn’t equal obsession dumbass the two can sometimes overlap but it doesn’t entail the other
