“People have this erroneous belief that pushing emotion down makes them strong. Ironically, it’s this repression that leaves them a slave to their unconscious feelings and weaker for it.”
“My son keeps having nightmares and complains about something called “The Tall Dog”…does anyone know what the hell this is? It’s happened three nights in a row! It’s driving me crazy! Help!”

“Clutter has only two possible causes: too much effort is required to put things away or it is unclear where things belong.”
Extraordinary people are just that – rare. Recognizing this doesn’t mean you’re giving up on your potential, it means you’re dissolving the illusions you have about what it means to be your whole self and live your best life.
