Time vs Money

Time is not money. Although many people treat money with more value than time. Got a problem? Throw money at it to fix it. Want to show someone you appreciate them? Spend money to buy them something. Want to build a relationship? Spend money to do something nice.
Time is not money. Time is worth much more than money. If everyone spent their time on people, instead of spending their time to earn money to spend on people, the world would be a better place.

Being in the know

"Being in the know" requires you to firstly (and most importantly) find the "know" and then figure out how to get into it. This may require effort on your part. Once inside, you must actively remain inside, or the know will change and move, and may leave you behind; ultimately leaving you once again out of the know, you know.

Advice

Escapism

The longer you practice escapism, the less likely you are to make a true escape.

Just do it!

The jobs that nobody wants to do are the same jobs that everybody complains about when they haven't been done.

The story of my life

Live your life like you are writing an adventure story on a deadline. There's definately no time for writers block. Don't waste too much time on characters that do not add anything to your story. There will always be antagonists to overcome.
