There was some expiration point to my life, and it became very important to maximize the time that I did have on Earth. That's what led me to my personal philosophy: "No Opportunity Wasted" - NOW for short, which is about living life to the fullest.

With any good story, you need the adversary, the heroes and villains. You need a good mixture to make it work.

A good storyteller can hold everybody captive without the special effects of Hollywood.

The world is waiting for you. Good luck. Travel safe. Go!

I love stories. When I tell a story, I try to think of people sitting around a crackling campfire.

There are times where you can't always get paid to do the things you really want to do. What really epitomizes your dream job is the job that pays you to do what you want to do.

As you get older and you realize you really don't know as much as you think you know, you listen more. Because then you think, now I need to be more receptive to the things I don't know. That's how you learn.
