(1) oh Man oh Man...I'm not crazy! (AND neither are most women...)

(2) Effort is what makes life worth it, when did it go out of style? (or I guess how come it never was in style???)

Quote that sums it up: "Expending effort becomes stigmatized—it’s public proof that you can’t cut it on your natural gifts."
(4) On performing at your personal best...and the importance of a coach/mentor to help along the way:

(5) Deliberate Practice/The making of an expert. I've been extremely intrigued by the body of research done by Anders Ericsson. (I highly recommend his main book that publishes a better context and supporting research of expert performance: The Cambridge Handbook of Expertise and Expert Performance)

(8)The main reason I am obsessed with Leonardo Da Vinci. His collection of human anatomy drawings are incredibly intricate and gorgeous. Although I think I read somewhere that his anatomical drawings were part of his process in creating accurate depictions of human essence in his paintings, I see these drawings as art itself and interpret them as realizing that art sits within each of us. In essence, we are art personified. IF I wasn't trying to control my hypomanic spending, I'd totally invest in a book of his drawings. (Maybe for my birthday...)
