Ta-Nehisi Coates on writing: "I always consider the entire process about failure, and I think that's the reason why more people don't write."

What is one good piece of advice that you have recieved?

I have always been afraid of dying doing something really mundane and boring. Just like having to look back and think, "Damn, *that* was my last moment on earth...? That moment when I was passively scrolling through twitter like a zombie and booom, the roof fell in." So, my new saying when I want to remind myself to stop doing something I don't want to be doing is: "This is not how I want to die. This is not how I want to live." It really helps. Whenever I say it, I always end up jumping up, turning on music, making a smoothie, calling my amazing grandma or something that reminds me, "DAMN!! I am a human and life can be as awesome as I want it to be." See more
