Create something. Create something ugly. Create something beautiful.  I don't care what it is. Create it.

About This Quote

The mind is a powerful tool, a dangerous tool, a tricky tool. A tool that can be used for good, a tool that can be used for evil, a tool that can be used to create something beautiful or something ugly. A tool that can help you find meaning in life or despair in the world. A tool that if used for good will make you feel proud of yourself and your life.

A tool that if used for evil will bring nothing but sorrow and regret. The only thing you have to do is make something. Learn from your mistakes and accept the fact that all things are not perfect, but eventually they will get better if you keep trying.

Don't worry about how it looks when it's done and all the other things in life that will come and go with time. Don't worry about feeling proud or feeling disgusted when you see what you made when the world is at your fingertips. Just keep creating.

If you don't, then nothing is going to change in your life.
