I'm not a "what if." I want to just do it, try it, give it my all, and if it's not meant to be, I can accept that. But I had to do it.

What really fueled me, and maybe infuriated me, is that nobody believed in me. Nobody. I don't even think I believe in myself. Part of what I was trying to do was to make the decision to go into business and find the guts to see it through. I was told that when I went in to see the bankers that I was supposed to be very muted, that I was supposed to blend in, that I was supposed to have the typical drab suit on.

Remember, the greatest failure is not to try.

I believe the only limitations are the ones that we accept.

I try not to take for granted how lucky we are to have life and breath and opportunity. Once we've got that, we can conquer anything.

If youre going to be at a job environment, you should love it. You shouldnt do it just for money. You should do it because you love it. And the money comes naturally.

My role is to coach, encourage, inspire, motivate, and help people.
