I started as a GED instructor, I created my own GED program, and I realized that a lot of young people that don’t do well academically. It’s not that they don’t have the competency to do it or the skill set to do it; it’s just that they weren’t motivated to learn. They weren’t interested in school, so I started just talking to students and just really going in on them like, “Yo, this is life or death.”

I've gotta breathe it, I've gotta eat it, I've gotta sleep it and until you get there you will never be successful in life. But once you get there I guarantee you, the world is yours. So work hard, and you can have whatever it is that you want.

You master Monday! You start winning the day! You start winning the week! Then the month! Then the year!

Sometimes in life, you have to hit back! It's not always gonna be easy!

When you want this thing as bad as you want to breathe! That's when you find a way!

I dare you to try to shortcut success! It's not going to happen! There are no shortcuts to success!

You'll never be successful until I don't have to give you a dime to do what you do.
