Notable Quotes:

"You should not be in the weeds doing things that are below your pay grade. You are the business owner, the entrepreneur, the visionary, and stop doing the little things that are not revenue generating."

"Identify tasks like data entry or invoice processing or customer inquiries and use your systems... Use methods and processes and figure out where your bottleneck is and how to remove that dam from the water so the water can flow."

"Sometimes it's just a matter of verbally processing it and getting it out of your head and getting that energy through your mouth and just talking about it. I know that's one of the things that helps me tremendously."

"There's no sense in listening to podcasts or getting motivated if it does not inspire action. And so that is my action call to you today."
