"If you dream of getting rock star parking in front of the restaurant, the only way you’ll ever get it is if you actually drive by the restaurant. If you keep parking six blocks away because you know that’s where the parking is, then you’re going to have that experience where you walk up to the restaurant and there’s a parking spot there and you’re going to think, “Aw, that could have been mine.” So drive by the restaurant."

I really love this analogy and this whole episode is one of the best conversations I’ve heard about doing what you love, and why that’s not as clean-cut as it sounds.
