QUOTES

03:25 "Entrepreneurship is the best form of self-development out there because it challenges you and you have to go and create something. And experiential learning is ultimately more powerful than, most of the time, academic learning."

04:29 "Take massive amounts of action. The more I've been around business owners and entrepreneurs, they're just like always taking action. They don't allow fear to paralyze them, they allow fear to temper them."

07:16 "I just see so many people gripped by fear of failing or looking silly, and I think we just have to embrace that you will look silly. So get out there and also win while you're doing it versus just reading a book on the bench."

18:01 "We have to get good at thinking for ourselves and really sorting through what is relevant to us and what we believe in. It sometimes feels like this package deal like you buy into Mel Robbins or you don't."

22:32 "Maybe it's a timer, maybe it's just very well-defined time blocks in your calendar, maybe you have a to-do list on social media or online, wherever you're doing your things. But having almost your own curriculum and roadmap can be so, so powerful."
