At the end of the day, we're all judged by those we leave behind.

I'm driven by telling stories, I love telling stories.

We have a gift of life. What we do with that gift is dependent on the choices we make. The people who we spend time with. The things that we go out to do every day.

Where we really effect change, in terms of creating a passionate work force, is by listening to kids early.

I once had a young musician come to me and say that he wanted to be a professional musician. I asked him to write his list. When he came back to me, the three things in his life he most wanted were: to be paid for his music; to travel around the world; to meet new people. We came to the decision, after thinking really creatively, that if he got a job on a cruise ship, he would fulfill those goals.

Schools often box kids into predefined categories. But we don't know what amazing ideas, inventions, cures, and contributions all these youths really have.

I love underdogs, people who have achieved extraordinary things against the odds.
