QUOTES
 
“I think what a lot of people don't realize is that the responsibility of earning money is massive. And the responsibility of running a million dollar company or a multimillion dollar company or an eight-figure company is huge.”
 
“Anybody who's in the entrepreneurial world has to understand that there's no point where you just are happy all the time and everything's great, that never happens. And if anybody tells you it has happened to them, they're either not being honest with you or not being honest with themselves. Because entrepreneurship is a journey and it's a journey of overcoming, it's a journey of massive transitions almost constantly in your life.”
 
“I think that one of the big mistakes that we make in the entrepreneurial world is the only thing we used to keep score is money. Like, if you're making money or not making money, then you're winning or losing. And some of the people who are making money that I know today, who are the most successful people that I know in the world, like the most successful, became successful after a period of tremendous downturn and learning the lessons and understand.”
 
“As entrepreneurs, if you get too caught up in this system created around entrepreneurship today, that will become your biggest distraction.”
 
“What matters to me is living a life where I compare myself to myself and not other people. And I think one of the biggest diseases in entrepreneurship is comparing your weaknesses to other people's strengths and then trying to move on from there.”
 
“Today we're working towards a business of massive impact and the financials are going to be there because they are every time we have a massive impact, but it's not so much about money anymore. I know it'll be there and I know it'll be the multi-million dollar, maybe eight-figure, maybe even nine-figure business with what we're putting together. But the goal is doing it in a way that we are really excited about and having fun.”
 
“One of my biggest challenges to grow a business is to grow in spite of my immediate environment. And that's been one of the biggest things that I've had to learn to overcome, to still be able to get out there and do what is right for me in spite of it.”
 
“I think that one of the biggest things we deal with as entrepreneurs is doubt and this question of ‘can I do this, you know, will I be able to do this? Should I keep doing this?’ And I think it's one of those things that holds a lot of entrepreneurs back. In fact, I think it's one of those things that keeps a lot of entrepreneurs from being transparent and being real. It’s because we feel that massive imposter syndrome of like.”
