Chuck Close

Note to Self

Chuck Close is an AMAZING ARTIST but he didn’t get to where he is easily. His hard work and never give up attitude. He says “never let anyone define what you are capable of by using parameters that don’t apply to you. Every great idea grew out of work itself. Everyone needs to feel special in their lives.”

CBS – NOTE TO SELF series is asking individuals to write a letter to self as if you were 14 years old. This youtube is well worth 5 minutes of your time to watch and you might want to share it with your students. Wonderful story and filled with wise words.
