Should it happen that no attention be paid to thee, whether out of contempt or from any other cause, do not show any resentment, but accept the humiliation, and bear it with resignation and tranquillity. - Pope Leo XIII

[Saint Ned @SaintNed]

Do not flatter yourself that you are able to acquire humility, unless you practice those exercises which are conducive to it.

Acts of meekness, patience, obedience, mortification, self-hatred, the renunciation of your feelings & opinions, sorrow for thy sins.

- Pope Leo XIII

When we judge greatness, we focus not on the average but on the peaks.

[Saint Ned @SaintNed]

To be successfully original, an invention needs to me new but also practical

[Saint Ned @SaintNed]

If we want to increase our odds of betting on the best original ideas, we must generate our own ideas before we screen others' suggestions

[Saint Ned @SaintNed]

Many people fail to achieve originality because they generate a few ideas and then obsess about refining them to perfection

[Saint Ned @SaintNed]

The most prolific people not only have the highest originality, they also generate the most original output during periods of large volumes

[Saint Ned @SaintNed]

The most important possible thing you could do to be original/successful is do a lot of work. Do a huge volume of work.

[Saint Ned @SaintNed]

The more pièces a composer produces in a given 5-year window, the greater the spike in the odds of a hit.

[Saint Ned @SaintNed]

Even the most eminent creators typically produce a large quantity of work that is technically sound but considered unremarkable by audiences

[Saint Ned @SaintNed]

The odds of producing an influential or successful idea are a positive function of the total number of ideas generated

[Saint Ned @SaintNed]

creative geniuses weren't qualitively better. They just produce a greater volume of work, giving more variation&higher chance of originality
