"Are you thinking about everything you could be doing all the time?" The one thing we can control is hard work and no matter how hard we work life is going to throw challenges our way. Just as Elliot writes in his new book Driven we it is imperative that we rise to those challenges and push through with hard work. Elliot has a diverse upbringing bringing this lesson full circle!
