NOTABLE QUOTES:

“Your business is like a baby. You have to nurture it, take care of it. You gotta do everything for your business, especially in the early days. And after a while, it takes care of its own.”

“My job as a dad is to help my kids, guide them and love them in the best ways that I know, and try to encourage the best relationship possible that they can have with their mom.”

“You cannot have a good relationship with anybody if you’re not talking or communicating.”

“You have to choose the pain that you’re going to have in your life.”

“Chronic pain is extreme, ongoing, and never stops - ever.”

“Acute pain is intense, but for a short amount of time.”

“If you want to experience a positive change in life you have to choose acute pain.”

“Who are you? Who has God created you to be? Are you that person yet? If not, why not? What’re you doing to get there? And don’t think about the 20 different things that you’ve to do to get to that point. It’s ok to list them out and just pick one. Work on that. Get better at that and then move on to the next one, and so on, and so on. That’s the way you’re gonna get there.”
