"For all the major moves in my life — to Baltimore, to Chicago, to own my show, and to end it — I've trusted my instincts. I take in all the information I can gather. I listen to proposals, ideas, and advice. Then I go with my gut, what my heart feels most strongly."
American Actress, Television Talk Show Host
1954 -
When making decisions, one should always gather the information and opinions available. But in the end, when it is decision time, one should listen to one's gut. One must learn to trust that quiet voice deep inside. Listening to one's gut requires silence. At some point, one must shut out the voices sharing their opinions and make up one's own mind.
As artists and writers, this is important advice. We must learn to trust ourselves. There are friends, teachers, critics and even strangers who are happy to share their opinions about our creative works. While it is important that we listen to what they say, we must learn to sort through the garbage and find a few nuggets of truth. And in the end, we must listen to our own quiet voice telling us what to paint or write.
Here is a short video biography of Oprah Winfrey.
