I'm glad you asked that question because of any musical situation I've been in the communication feels great here with Russell. He really pays close attention to what I'm doing because he cares.

I hope to bring much more attention to important issues and change for issues and practices that are harming animals.

On one level nothing's really changed in my life. I still drive my daughter in the car pool on Monday. But it's impossible not to be aware of this rush of attention it's impossible not to be seduced by it once you've entered into it seduced by being unhappy when the attention wanes.

I've found the best way is to not be scared of the attention but to be grateful for it and open to it. It makes my days better rather than being annoyed that people want my attention.

If being an attractive woman got you attention for directing then the entire 'best director' category would be comprised of models. To me that is just the most ludicrous connection that you could make.

I believe the best service to the child is the service closest to the child and children who are victims of neglect abuse or abandonment must not also be victims of bureaucracy. They deserve our devoted attention not our divided attention.

Pay attention to the beauty surrounding you.

Enlightened leadership is spiritual if we understand spirituality not as some kind of religious dogma or ideology but as the domain of awareness where we experience values like truth goodness beauty love and compassion and also intuition creativity insight and focused attention.

Every year of my life I grow more convinced that it is wisest and best to fix our attention on the beautiful and the good and dwell as little as possible on the evil and the false.

If a person can be said to have the wrong attitude there is no need to pay attention to his arguments.
