The way people see others is a reflection of themselves: If I am a trusting person, I will see others as trustworthy. If I am a critical person, I will see others as critical. If I am a caring person, I will see others as compassionate. If you change yourself and become the kind of person you desire to be, you will begin to view others in a whole new light. And that will change the way you interact in all of your relationships. —Winning with People BE AWARE OF YOUR “LENS” TODAY AS YOU INTERACT WITH OTHERS.

As children, routine gives us a feeling of safety. As adults, it gives us a feeling of purpose. Interestingly enough, those two feelings are more similar than you’d think (at least, their origin is the same). It’s the same thing as the fear of the unknown: As children, we don’t know which way is left, let alone why we’re alive or whether or not a particular activity we’ve never done before is going to be scary or harmful. When we’re adults engaging with routine-ness, we can comfort ourselves with the simple idea of “I know how to do this, I’ve done it before.”

Credit Ted Sarandos, he puts thirteen episodes, plus another thirteen episodes on the table. We go back to HBO, and they say, “We’re going to give you just a pilot.” It was an easy decision. That was the beginning. That was the first time I realized, they’re fucked.
