Notable Quotes
“We dodge accountability as human beings and it's just a habit we all have and it's a choice to either remain accountable or not remain accountable. It is my responsibility and duty to show up every single day. I know that if I'm not showing up, somebody's missing out.”
“I don't think there's one thing you can do to be successful. I think all success is consistently stacking a bunch of good habits on top of each other. So it wasn’t like a magic pill that I was like, oh, I just need to say this, and people gimme their credit card. It was consistently doing the work every single day and consistently staying a student of the craft.”
"I realized I was the problem and needed to figure out how to love myself and heal before seeking any other kind of success."
“A lot of people look at, God, why did you put us on this earth? I don't know. I don't have the answer to that. But what, what I do know is if I can just help the people around me and just help impact other people, help other people become happier, help other people unlock something within themselves that's not only gonna make myself feel better, but it's gonna make a lot of other people feel better at the end of the day.”
"Healing and doing the work is important in both personal and business endeavors."
"It's going to take as long as it takes, and often longer than we think, to achieve our goals."
"A sense of urgency is important, as time is not on our side."
"Motivation comes from seeing others succeed and recognizing that if they can do it, anyone can do it."
