PEP TALK:
You’re going to be sitting in class with some privileged hipster who never had to work or struggle for anything, who never had to leave her small comfort zone, who is going to school so she can “become an artist,” who has never had the dust of a desert road lodged in her nether regions. That’s whom you’re competing against.
You need to be clear about why you’re better suited than that person.
You need to rip off her head, drink her blood, and toss her lifeless husk into the trash can with the rest of her crappy shallow art.
Because you’ve been out there in the world. You’ve done stuff. And that stuff was awesome. And that stuff will pale in comparison to the still awesomer stuff you’re about to unleash.
now THAT’s how you motivate. let’s go kill some art students!! no? did i miss the point?
