“The only reason that you don't have what you want, that you're not making the money that you want, that you don't have the job that you want, is because you haven't committed to yourself that that's what you want and that you're willing to do what it takes to go get it.” - Gerrie Dozier
“If you focus more on the action, you're constantly making progress, you're constantly moving yourself forward. You don't have time to complain when you're acting.” - Gerrie Dozier
