When things don't go well, it helps to think of yourself as a genius and the rest of the world as a bunch of idiots.
If things go wrong, don't go with them.
I've come to understand that there's always something positive, even in a negative situation.
The minute I started addressing my feelings, I actually came out of very negative situations.
In any bad situation you can not let yourself be a victim.
Call me boring, but I can't handle negative situations.
Most artists - painters or writers - I think create out of stress or negative situations. Look at rock music. It's about getting things off of your chest, and it's a means of venting in many ways. That's what my work is about.
But it's always nice to get some compliments, and when you are in a hard situation, it gives you motivation to come back and to prove what the people are saying.
I feel really passionate now that talking with family, friends, or a counsellor is the way to deal with negative situations and difficult times.
If you can't live it down, might as well live it up.
Some people have such a talent for making the best of a bad situation that they go around creating bad situations so they can make the best of them.
I never put myself in negative situations unless they happen.
