Even when life is difficult or challenging-especially when life is difficult and challenging-the present is always an opportunity for us to learn, grow, and become better than we've ever been before.

To reach levels of success you've never reached before, you must be committed at a level you've never been committed at before.

Don't worry about trying to impress people... Just focus on how you can add value to their lives.

"My #1 guiding principle for a successful life (learned from J Brad Britton): "Do the right thing; not the easy thing." Everyday, you are constantly faced with choices to do either the right thing (any activity that moves you closer to where and who you want to be) or the easy thing (anything else). In every moment of choice, choose to do the right thing over the easy thing, and your becoming successful is inevitable.

It's true that everything happens for a reason, but it is always our responsibility to choose the reasons.

It's okay to be average, as long as you surround yourself with extraordinary people that you become the average of.
