Part of getting other people to focus on the future rather than being myopically focused on the present is about living that way yourself and showing that you can make choices today that are about future outcomes and still be having a great time into the present and enjoying your life.
I believe we all have the capacity to be masters of many things, and there's nothing that we can't do. You can be a great actor and also be a great writer. There's so many things that all of us have the capacity to do. But somehow, life tries to convince us that we'd be lucky to do even one thing well, and I disagree.
You deserve a great life. I want to see you become unreasonably happy. And you can. And you will.
Health is actually the foundational tool to help us live the life.
People listen for cues - when they are searching for a decision, they look to people they know. Young people can be apathetic in certain ways unless they hear from someone they like and admire about why they should be engaged and involved. If someone you love is doing a rally or concert, you may be engaged to register.
People are afraid of an unorganized, wasteful government.
Money is simply a tool to give you choices.
I'm not excusing crime or those who bring poison into the community, but I do want brothers and sisters in prison to know someone cares.

My first two books, Letters to a Young Brother and Letters to a Young Sister, were... distributed pretty widely. Judges in juvenile justice facilities started citing the book as required reading.
You cant have justice unless you have truth.
I love making films, but the best roles are hard to come by.
