HIGHLIGHT QUOTES

Learning from people's mistakes is more valuable than replicating their successes - Scott: "If I want to have a successful business, I don't go to the billionaire. I go to the gal or the guy that's had two bankruptcies because man, I can learn from and avoid their mistakes more likely than I can replicate the successes of the other person. Now I need both in my life, but I find that just, in life, avoiding the inevitable mistakes is probably 60 to 70% of the journey."

Defining PHILPAL and how it helps find true self-awareness in career and life - Scott: "Very few of us have really taken the time, the days, the hours, the weeks to go and say, So what are my values? And I went and did that. Took me several weeks, and I came up with a series of seven of them and I created an acronym, PHILPAL... Purpose, Health, Integrity, Loyalty, Positivity, Abundance, and Learning."
