You can't base your life's decisions on potential future regrets.

I believe my high school book said I was most likely to become a candlestick maker. Guessing I didn't exactly exude confidence but just goes to show you that your path is yours to choose and make the best of and not for someone else to tell you what you can or cannot be.

People give up control because they don't want to make mistakes.

I would say my mind is always working - no matter where I am I continue to see opportunities all around me. My only sorrow is that I can't possibly explore them all!

There's a tendency to attribute magical skills and knowledge to people who've been elevated in some way - appearing on TV, or having an impressive title, or coming from a wealthy family. There's often an assumption that these people possess some rare, mysterious qualities mere mortals lack. What crap.

I am excited to be able to do something at this stage in my life that I feel is going to have some meaning. More helping people from a financial perspective understand their own strengths and lend a voice to things that I think are socially important.

Sometimes being in control of everything comes with a lot of challenges.
