- You can't be a violin maker and a psychologist. You have to choose.

- There’s the idea that we each have one great thing we are meant to do during our time on this earth, and you need to figure out what that thing is and devote your life to it.

- It is rarely a waste of time to pursue something you're drawn to, even if you end up quitting. You might apply that knowledge in a different field entirely, in a way that you couldn't have anticipated.

- We have a lot of complex problems in the world right now, and we need creative, out-of-the-box thinkers to solve them.

- Embrace your inner wiring, whatever that may be. Embracing our inner wiring leads to a happier, more authentic life.
