A Lil Manifesto - Steven Stallings

·        The Past is done. Move forward!

·        Own your mistakes and learn from them. Incorporate them into your artistic endeavors.

·        Reject the idea of what good taste means to you.

·        Learn to love the unloved. At least understand it/them better.

·        Live in the present moment and be thankful to God for everything.

·        Know that rejection will lead to unexpected opportunities.

·        Do and work with what you love.

·        Don't do what you love. Develop new skill sets.

·        Analyze bad smells, ugly objects, and grotesque noises. Maybe you'll learn to love them.

·        See a friend in every person and object.

·        Take a break. Go eat a burger, taco, and/or burrito. Get back to work.

·        Build something. Break it down. Repeat.

·        Don't only wish. Do, so that you can have new things to wish for.

·        Eat what makes you feel good, but if it's only making your mental state happier and your body sick, then try to eat more vegetables. 

·        Do a little dance.
