Michelle Wolf Quotes

I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it.

To create a new standard, you have to be up for that challenge and really enjoy it.

Whatever I know how to do, I've already done. Therefore I must always do what I do not know how to do.

Most of the time, I do what I'm offered, but after I worked for it. I think I try much harder for the things that scare me and inspire me. The things that scare and inspire you are things that are different from what you did before.

I always try to put myself in the way of surprise as much as possible. My ambition is to keep challenging myself. I like that journey of discovery.

If an idea isn't exciting, you shouldn't do it.

My general idea about my work is that it's more about the work than the things that come with it. I am constantly striving to improve on that and find new things to do there. That journey itself is so interesting is because there's so much to do that there's no room for doubt there.

Nobody ever died of discomfort, yet living in the name of comfort has killed more ideas, more opportunities, more actions, and more growth than everything else combined. Comfort kills!

Give me more. Let's do what has not been done.

Always work hard on something uncomfortably exciting!

I love to be challenged, and I'm never sitting comfortable in the mediocrity chair.

It's fun to be on the edge. I think you do your best work when you take chances, when you're not safe, when you're not in the middle of the road, at least for me, anyway.

I fear the boredom that comes with not learning and not taking chances.

If your work isn't exciting, doesn't stir the emotions, where's the challenge? Where's the progress if you always play it safe?

To keep the edge, you just keep doing something new. I'm not gonna say that working is easy, but while I'm doing it, I'm just a happy little moron - that's how my girlfriend describes me. The fact that nothing might happen with those things is not the point. The point is, I'm doing new things, and I have a good feeling in my soul.

Every time you do something, make something, it's final in a way, but it's not. It immediately raises a great set of questions. And if you become a question addict, which I am, you immediately have something you need to pursue.

You only do good work when you're taking risks and pushing yourself.

I always like being able to do something I haven't done before.

I like new challenges and new experiences.

If you're playing within your capability, what's the point? If you're not pushing your own technique to its own limits with the risk that it might just crumble at any moment, then you're not really doing your job.

I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're doing something.

Desperation is a necessary ingredient to learning anything, or creating anything. Period. If you ain't desperate at some point, you ain't interesting.

I'm always tryin' to do something new, tryin' to look like a beginner.

Every season I try to top myself, and push it a little further.

I have always strived to do something different, to push myself.
