“You don't need to go back in time to be awesome; you just have to start right now. Regretting that you didn't start earlier is a great distraction from moving on your dream today, and the reality is that today is earlier than tomorrow.”
“Pitting your dream against someone else's is a fantastic way to get discouraged and depressed.”
“If you’re going to risk and maybe fail, fail at something that matters. Fail gloriously so that even in failure, lives change.”
