I find that so often this work can so easily overcome you and knock you out of balance and become all you think about and all you care about and all you feel is important in your life, and it's kind of the opposite. Relationships first and people first and then you can be a great performer.
Erin DaviePeople can have all the expectations that they want, but I know that you never know what's going to happen in life. Everything is part of the journey.
