We may divide thinkers into those who think for themselves and those who think through others. The latter are the rule and the former the exception. The first are original thinkers in a double sense, and egotists in the noblest meaning of the word.

“Brian: First a massive thank you for setting up Zaadz, now Gaia... I'm writing also to thank you for the recent Philospher's Notes. I absolutely love the recent ones by Robin Sharma and now Nietzsche about pushing yourself, and your practical stuff about getting up before the sun, and the other stuff about “it's great to find your dream, your gift to the world, but are you willing to work hard to actually make it happen!?” This is where I am at in my personal life. Very clear on what I'm doing and why, but not really very good at, or not willing to, push myself out of my comfort zone in order to make it happen now. So thank you for these very loving kicks up the butt that I have been receiving in my Inbox every morning! You are giving a great gift to the world. You are a living example of what can be achieved. God Bless You!”
“Hey, Brian. Thanks for the email... $20 (what a bargain). I found out about your site from Philosophers Notes podcast and the interview you did with the New Man. Your commentary and the notes are inspiring. I've got three kids and all the stuff that goes along with that. The notes are both a mental timeout and a gut check to help me stay on a path of authenticity. I'm not where you are but I'll keep striving. Thanks again!”
"Being able to shift perspectives is like having a freely functioning vehicle. If a car is stuck in any gear, what you’ve got is a dysfunctional car. Even if it’s a Maserati, if you’re stuck in first gear, or you’re stuck in reverse, no matter what gear you’re stuck in, it’s dysfunctional. But the moment you have fluidity and movement and you’re able to shift up or down or into reverse, or whatever you need to do, you’ve got a functional vehicle." ~ Zen Master Dennis Genpo Merzel
