Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
Robert Frost

Read everyday.
Spend time with nature.
Ask questions.
Never stop learning.
Don't pay attention to what others think of you.
Do what interests you the most.
Study hard.
Teach others what you know.
Make mistakes and learn.
It's okay to not know things.
Richard Feynman, curated list of advice.

I thought I was writing what I wanted to read.
That's what I would think when I didn't know how to phrase something or end a story.
I'll just remind myself: I'm writing what I want to read.
Tao Lin, on learning to write.

As the true method of knowledge is experiment,
the true faculty of knowing must
be the faculty which experiences.
William Blake
